Unit Background: Ounces & Kilograms
Ounces (oz): The ounce is equal to 1/16th of an avoirdupois pound. It is used for postal weights, food portions, and precious metals (though metals use the slightly heavier troy ounce).
Kilograms (kg): The kilogram is the SI base unit of mass. Until 2019, it was defined by a physical platinum cylinder in France, but is now defined immutably using the Planck constant.
