    However, a sheet of common copy paper that has a basis weight of 20 pounds (9.1 kg) does not have the same mass as the same size sheet of coarse paper (newsprint). In the former case, the standard ream is 500 sheets of 17-by-22-inch (432 by 559 mm) paper, and in the latter, 500 sheets of 24-by-36-inch (610 by 914 mm) paper.

    The catty is traditionally equivalent to around 1 + 1 ⁄ 3 pound avoirdupois, formalised as 604.78982 grams in Hong Kong, [1] 604.5 grams historically in Vietnam, [2] 604.79 grams in Malaysia [3] and 604.8 grams in Singapore. [4] In some countries, the weight has been rounded to 600 grams (Taiwan, [5] Japan, Korea [6] and Thailand).

    The complete conversion of 1 kg of matter into pure energy would yield the theoretical maximum (E = mc 2) of 89.8 petajoules, which is equivalent to 21.5 megatons of TNT. No such method of total conversion as combining 500 grams of matter with 500 grams of antimatter has yet been achieved.

    Avoirdupois is a system of mass based on a pound of 16 ounces, while Troy weight is the system of mass where 12 troy ounces equals one troy pound. The symbol g 0 is used to denote standard gravity in order to avoid confusion with the (upright) g symbol for gram.

    An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.
