10 Everyday Items That Weigh A Quarter Gram (or Less)

Grams are one of the most commonly used units of measurement, but the number of products that weigh exactly half a gram is the tiny “g” is short for gram

Grams don’t weigh much, so weigh in grams if you have a small amount

After some research, I came up with a list of things that weigh half a gram

Pumpkin seeds Sunflower seeds Wheat grain Peas Corn kernels Flea (insect) House fly (insect) Silica gel packets 25 carat diamond Watch component

Pumpkin Seed

1 oz of pumpkin seeds contains about 84 seeds that weigh 28 grams

By simple calculation, 1 pumpkin seed will weigh about 04 grams

Season the pumpkin seeds with olive oil, salt, and garlic powder, then roast for 12 to 15 minutes over medium heat (350°F)

Sunflower seeds

A cup of 266 sunflower seeds weighs 133 grams

If you calculate the weight of a sunflower seed, you will find out that it is about 05 grams

According to Healthlinecom, sunflower seeds are a healthy and nutritious food

Because they contain vitamin E, protein, magnesium, linoleic fatty acids and other good ingredients, sunflower seeds help lower blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar

With an average seed mass of 35 mg, 28,571 seeds are sown per kilogram of seed

If the average seed weight of the variety is 45 mg, then there are only 22,222 seeds in a kilogram of sown seeds

On average, peas weigh between 01 and 036 grams

Green peas weigh 1819 grams per 100 seeds and have a diameter of 7585 mm

Yellow peas are slightly larger than green peas, with an average diameter of 8090 mm and a weight of 2021 grams per 100 seeds

Fleas are only 23 mm long and weigh less than 1 gram on average

Fleas are a common problem for pets, especially cats and dogs

Despite their small size, they are quite annoying and can quickly turn into a serious problem if not treated in time

house fly (insect)

Houseflies are a common problem found all over the world

Their dirty reputation and spread of disease make houseflies a serious health problem

Silica gel packets

Silica gel or silicon dioxide (SiO2) is commonly encountered as beads in a small paper package in everyday life

One small packet of silica gel, which you can get on Amazon, weighs about half a gram

I put some silica gel packets in my camera storage case so that fungus doesn’t grow inside the camera lensweightofthingcom

25 carat diamond

I don’t think I need to explain what a diamond is anymore

One of the facts is “expensive” Cited by Diamondseinfo, diamonds weighing 300 to 399 ct (carat) fetch $16,158 per carat

One carat is only equal to 02 grams, so if you have a 25 carat diamond, it is equivalent to only 05 grams, very light but extremely expensive

If you ever take a watch apart, you’ll notice that there are dozens of different components, all of which are small

These components are light, and some weigh only half a gram
