    Is there a specific name for 0.5 grams?
    Community Answer
    0.5 grams is 1/2 a gram; there is no special unit for it. If you want to use a smaller unit, you can go to milligrams (mg). Since "milli"=1,000, there are 1000 mg per gram. So 0.5 grams would equal 1/2 a gram, which would be 500 mg (1/2 of 1,000).

  • Question
    How many grams is a 100 mL shower gel?
    Community Answer
    A gram is a measure of weight. Millilitre is a measure of volume. That said, if you are talking about 100ml of water, then 100mL=100g. If you want to keep it simple, use that. Beyond that, it varies depending on the density of the substance. If you look at the label of your shower gel, it should have a weight & volume listed. For my simple shampoo, it is listed in ounces and mL. In my case, just convert ounces to grams (ounces x 28.3495) and then divide grams by mL to get grams per mL. Then multiply by 100 to get how many grams in 100 mL of this substance. In my case, the answer is 95.87 grams per 100 mL of my shampoo.
  • Question
    Does the mass of frozen water differ from the mass of liquid water?

    No, the mass of liquid water remains the same as it freezes. During the freezing process the water's volume expands, but its density diminishes as the mass (weight) remains unchanged.

    Donagan

    That would tell you the volume of the apple, but you'd still need to know the volume-to-weight conversion factor for that particular variety of apple.
