Exagram

What is a exagram?

An exagram (Eg) equals 10^15 kilograms, or one quintillion grams.

Origin of the exagram

From the SI prefix 'exa-' (from Greek 'hex', six, denoting the sixth power of 1000).

Where it is used

Confined to planetary- and atmospheric-scale mass discussions; never used in daily measurement.

When and where it was developed

The exa- prefix was adopted by the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) in 1975.

Metric / SI

Nanogram

What is a nanogram?

A nanogram (ng) equals 10^-12 kilogram.

Origin of the nanogram

From the SI prefix 'nano-' (from Greek 'nanos', dwarf).

Where it is used

Molecular biology, forensics, and toxicology.

When and where it was developed

The nano- prefix entered the SI in 1960.

Exagram to Nanogram conversion formula

The relationship between exagrams and nanograms:

1 Eg = 1e+27 ng
1 ng = 1e-27 Eg

To convert exagrams to nanograms, multiply the value in exagrams by 1e+27. To reverse, multiply nanograms by 1e-27.

How to use this converter

Type a value into the calculator. The result in nanograms updates as you type. Tap a quick value, copy the result with one click, or use the swap arrow to jump straight to the Nanogram to Exagram converter for the reverse direction.

Step-by-step: convert exagrams to nanograms

  1. Write down the value in exagrams (Eg).
  2. Multiply that value by the factor 1e+27.
  3. The product is the equivalent value in nanograms (ng).
  4. To reverse, multiply the nanogram value by 1e-27.

Worked examples

Example 1 — Convert 1 Eg to ng:
1 × 1e+27 = 1e+27 ng

Example 2 — Convert 100 Eg to ng:
100 × 1e+27 = 1e+29 ng

Frequently asked questions

How many nanograms is 1 exagram?
1 exagram equals 1e+27 nanogram.
How do I convert exagrams to nanograms?
Multiply the value in exagrams by 1e+27 to get nanograms.
How do I convert nanograms back to exagrams?
Multiply the value in nanograms by 1e-27, or use the Nanogram to Exagram converter.
How many nanograms is 100 exagrams?
100 exagrams equals 1e+29 nanograms, because 100 × 1e+27 = 1e+29.
