About the Units
The atomic mass unit (u) is used for the scale of atoms and molecules. The metric ton (tonne) is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms, used for heavy freight. Converting between them bridges the gap between the subatomic world and heavy industry, involving a factor of 10 to the power of 30.
