Abbreviation of oz? | Unit of Measurements.
Abbreviation of oz. (ounce)
"oz." is a shortened version of the word " Ounce. " The ounce is primarily used as a unit of weight in both the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. It is also used as a unit of volume in some contexts, such as fluid ounces when measuring liquids. The ounce has a long history and can be traced back to various ancient measurement systems. It was widely used in Europe before the introduction of the metric system.
In the imperial system, one ounce is equal to 1/16th of a pound. In the US customary system, it is equal to 1/16th of a pound as well. However, in the avoirdupois system, which is commonly used for everyday weights, one avoirdupois ounce is approximately 28.35 grams. When it comes to measuring liquids, the fluid ounce (fl oz) is used. It is a unit of volume, and the abbreviation for fluid ounces is also "fl oz."
In the US customary system, one fluid ounce is equivalent to approximately 29.57 milliliters (ml). Ounces are commonly used for measuring the weight or volume of various items such as food, beverages, and ingredients in cooking and baking. They are also used for measuring body weight, postage, and precious metals like gold and silver.
In the context of precious metals, particularly gold, silver, and other precious metals, a troy ounce is used. A troy ounce is slightly heavier than an avoirdupois ounce, with one troy ounce equal to approximately 31.1 grams. The symbol for ounce, whether for weight or volume, is "oz." It is derived from the Italian word "onza" or the Spanish word "onza," which both referred to the twelfth part of a pound.
