Convert centigram to dalton
Please provide values below to convert centigram [cg] to dalton [Da], or Convert dalton to centigram.
1 cg = 6.0221e+21 Da. To convert centigram to dalton, multiply the value by 6.0221e+21; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Da = 1.6605e-22 cg). Both units measure weight and mass and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cg = 6.0221e+21 Da
- 1 Da = 1.6605e-22 cg
- 10 cg = 6.0221e+22 Da
- 100 cg = 6.0221e+23 Da
How to Convert Centigram to Dalton
1 cg = 6.02214076208112e+21 Da
Example: convert 15 cg to Da:
15 cg = 15 × 6.02214076208112e+21 Da = 9.03321114312168e+22 Da

Centigram
A centigram (cg) is a unit of mass equal to one hundredth of a gram, primarily used for measuring small quantities.
History/Origin
The centigram was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century to facilitate precise measurements in science and commerce, especially in contexts requiring small mass units.
Current Use
Today, the centigram is mainly used in scientific, medical, and jewelry contexts where precise small measurements are necessary, although grams are more commonly used in everyday applications.
Dalton
The dalton (Da) is a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights, equivalent to one atomic mass unit (amu).
History/Origin
The dalton was named after John Dalton, who developed early atomic theory in the early 19th century. It has been widely used in chemistry and biochemistry to measure atomic and molecular masses.
Current Use
The dalton is commonly used in scientific contexts to specify the mass of atoms, molecules, and subatomic particles, facilitating precise communication in chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular biology.
