Microgram (µg). A microgram is one millionth of a gram, used for vitamins, medicines and trace amounts.
Tonne (t). A tonne (metric ton) is 1,000 kilograms, used for vehicles, cargo, steel and crops.
There are 1 × 10⁻¹² tonnes in one microgram.
Multiply the number of micrograms by 1 × 10⁻¹². For example, 10 micrograms equal 1 × 10⁻¹¹ tonnes.
One tonne equals 1,000,000,000,000 micrograms.
1 × 10⁻⁹ tonnes. Other common values: 100 micrograms = 1 × 10⁻¹⁰ tonnes and 10,000 micrograms = 1 × 10⁻⁸ tonnes.
