Convert dalton to ton (long)
Please provide values below to convert dalton [Da] to ton (long) [ton (UK)], or Convert ton (long) to dalton.
1 Da = 1.6343e-30 ton (UK). To convert dalton to ton (long), multiply the value by 1.6343e-30; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ton (UK) = 6.1188e+29 Da). 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 Da = 1.6343e-30 ton (UK)
- 1 ton (UK) = 6.1188e+29 Da
- 10 Da = 1.6343e-29 ton (UK)
- 100 Da = 1.6343e-28 ton (UK)
How to Convert Dalton to Ton (Long)
1 Da = 1.6343133887009e-30 ton (UK)

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.
Ton (Long)
A long ton, also known as the imperial ton or UK ton, is a unit of weight equal to 2,240 pounds or 1,016.0469 kilograms.
History/Origin
The long ton originated in the United Kingdom as a standard measurement for large quantities of goods and materials, particularly in shipping and trade, during the 19th century. It was used alongside other imperial units before the adoption of the metric system.
Current Use
Today, the long ton is primarily used in the United Kingdom and some Commonwealth countries for measuring large quantities of freight, cargo, and in certain industrial contexts. It is less common internationally, having been largely replaced by the metric ton (tonne).
