Question

What are the advantages of CGS system​

Answer 1

Answer:

That's useful for chemists who often measure amounts by volume and wish to easily convert to mass. Also most amounts used by chemists are around the range of 1-100 in centimeters and grams. mks units are more convenient for the amounts physicists usually deal with.

Answer 2

Advantages of CGS system​

• The density of water is 1 (g/cm³).

• Many other liquid and solid densities are within an order of magnitude of 1.

• It is useful for chemists who often measure amounts by volume and wish to easily convert to mass.

• Also most amounts used by chemists are around the range of 1-100 in centimeters and grams.

• MKS units are more convenient for the amounts physicists usually deal with.

• It uses a non-prefixed unit as the base unit of mass, unlike mks which uses kilograms.

• But it uses a prefixed unit as the base unit of distance, so it has as many disadvantages as advantages in that respect.

• Particularly using a non-power-of-three prefix is tricky.

• It requires a little bit to stop and think when you need to convert nanometers to centimeters.
