Weight or mass?
Strictly, kilograms and pounds measure mass, while weight is the force of gravity on that mass. In everyday use the two words mean the same, and all units here are units of mass.
Indian units
The quintal (100 kg) is used for farm produce, and the tola (about 11.66 g) for gold and silver. One tola is close to 10 grams but not the same; jewellers today usually price per 10 g.
