Length, SI unit: meter (m)

MetricMetric
1 kilometer (km) =1,000 meter (m)
1 meter = 100 centimeter (cm)
1 centimeter = 10 millimeter (mm)
1 meter = 1,000 millimeter
EnglishEnglish
1 mile (mi) = 1760 yard (yd)
1 yard = 3 feet (ft)
1 foot = 12 inches
1 mile = 5280 feet
MetricEnglish
1 km = 0.62137 mi
1 mi = 5280 ft = 1.6093 km
1 m = 1.0936 yd = 3.280 ft
1 in = 2.54 cm (exactly)

1 amu = 1.660539 x 10-24 g

Volume, SI unit: cubic meter (m3)
MetricMetric
1 cubic meter (m3) = 1,000 liter (L)
1 liter = 1,000 milliliter (ml)
1 cubic centimeter (cm3) = 1 milliliter
EnglishEnglish
1 gallon (gal) = 4 quart (qt)
2 pints (pt) = 1 quart
1 pint = 2 cup
1 cup = 8 ounces (oz) = 16 teaspoons (tsp)
MetricEnglish
1L = .001 m3 = 1000 cm3 = 1.0567 qt
1 gal = 4 qt = 3.7854 L

Temperature, SI unit: Kelvin (K)

Mass, SI unit: kilogram (kg)
0 K = -273.15 C
K = C + 273.15
MetricMetric
C = 5/9(F 32)
1 metric ton = 1000 kilogram (kg)
F = 9/5C + 32
1 kilogram = 1,000 gram (g)
1 gram = 1,000 milligram (mg)
Pressure, SI unit: Pascal (Pa)
EnglishEnglish
1 Pascal (Pa) = 1 Newton/m2
1 pound (lb) = 16 ounces (oz)
1 atm = 101.325 kPa = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg
MetricEnglish
1 atm= 14.7 lb/in2 (psi)
1 kg = 1000 g = 2.2046 lb
1 lb = 453.59 g
1 g = 6.02214142 x 1023 amu

How to read this chart (left to right): Prefix is the name that is placed in front of the unit. Symbol is the short hand notation.
Factor: A giga (G) is 1,000,000,000 or 109 larger than the start, or a nano (n) is 0.000 000 001 or 10-9 or a billion times
smaller than the starting unit.
Conversion: 1 (unit) is .001 kilo(units) or 1,000 milli(units).
