		<p>* the SI base unit of mass is the kilogram, but gram is used for the consistency it provides in semantics and evaluation<br>
		† the SI standard indicates that this is a dimensionless but nonetheless derived unit<br>
		‡ this is the preferred plural form in English as per http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/pdf/sp811.pdf</p>
