# Micrograms to tonnes

**1 microgram in tonnes: 1 µg = 1 × 10^-12 t**

t = µg × 1 × 10^-12

To convert micrograms to tonnes, multiply by 1 × 10^-12. The table below gives the values people look up most often, and the converter works for any number.

*Common microgram values converted to tonnes.*

| Micrograms | Tonnes |
| --- | --- |
| 1 µg | 1 × 10^-12 |
| 2 µg | 2 × 10^-12 |
| 3 µg | 3 × 10^-12 |
| 4 µg | 4 × 10^-12 |
| 5 µg | 5 × 10^-12 |
| 10 µg | 1 × 10^-11 |
| 15 µg | 1.5 × 10^-11 |
| 20 µg | 2 × 10^-11 |
| 25 µg | 2.5 × 10^-11 |
| 30 µg | 3 × 10^-11 |
| 40 µg | 4 × 10^-11 |
| 50 µg | 5 × 10^-11 |
| 75 µg | 7.5 × 10^-11 |
| 100 µg | 1 × 10^-10 |
| 250 µg | 2.5 × 10^-10 |
| 500 µg | 5 × 10^-10 |
| 1,000 µg | 1 × 10^-9 |

## How the conversion works

The relationship is t = µg × 1 × 10^-12. Both units measure mass, so the conversion is a fixed factor that never changes.

> Tonne: Also called a metric ton.

## Common questions

### How many tonnes are in one microgram?

One microgram equals 1 × 10^-12 tonnes. t = µg × 1 × 10^-12.

### How do you convert micrograms to tonnes?

Use t = µg × 1 × 10^-12. So 10 µg is 1 × 10^-11 t.

### How many micrograms are in one tonne?

One tonne equals 1,000,000,000,000 micrograms, which is the reverse of the conversion above.

### Is there more than one kind of tonne?

Also called a metric ton.
