Convert centigram to exagram
Please provide values below to convert centigram [cg] to exagram [Eg], or Convert exagram to centigram.
1 cg = 1.0000e-20 Eg. To convert centigram to exagram, multiply the value by 1.0000e-20; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Eg = 1.0000e+20 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 = 1.0000e-20 Eg
- 1 Eg = 1.0000e+20 cg
- 10 cg = 1.0000e-19 Eg
- 100 cg = 1.0000e-18 Eg
How to Convert Centigram to Exagram
1 cg = 1e-20 Eg
Example: convert 15 cg to Eg:
15 cg = 15 × 1e-20 Eg = 1.5e-19 Eg

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.
Exagram
An exagram (Eg) is a unit of mass equal to 10^18 grams, used to measure extremely large quantities of mass.
History/Origin
The exagram is a relatively recent addition to the metric system, introduced to facilitate the measurement of very large masses in scientific and industrial contexts, aligning with the SI prefixes for large units.
Current Use
Exagrams are primarily used in scientific research, astronomy, and large-scale industrial applications to quantify massive amounts of material or celestial bodies.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 centigram in exagram?
1 centigram (cg) = 1.0000e-20 exagram (Eg).
How do you convert centigram to exagram?
Multiply the centigram value by 1.0000e-20. For example, 25 cg × 1.0000e-20 = 2.5000e-19 Eg.
What is 10 centigram in exagram?
10 cg = 1.0000e-19 Eg.
Which unit is larger, the centigram or the exagram?
The exagram is the larger unit: 1 cg equals only 1.0000e-20 Eg.
