What is Ounce?

The ounce is a unit of mass in the imperial and US customary systems, equal to one-sixteenth of a pound, or exactly 28.349523125 grams. It is widely used in the United States for food packaging, postal rates, and portion sizes. Boxing gloves are rated in ounces (such as 8 oz or 10 oz), and restaurant menus often describe steak sizes in ounces. Note that the fluid ounce is a separate unit of volume and should not be confused with the ounce of mass.

What is Tonne?

The tonne, also known as the metric ton, is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms. It was introduced alongside the metric system during the French Revolution to provide a convenient measure for large masses. The tonne is used globally in trade, shipping, and industry for expressing the weight of bulk goods, vehicles, and heavy machinery. For everyday reference, a typical passenger car weighs about 1 to 2 tonnes, and an adult African elephant weighs roughly 5 tonnes.
