The SI unit of force is the "newton". Weight is a force.
Since a weight is a force, the unit for force, i.e. the newton, is used.

The international standard unit for weight is the GramAnswerNo, the international (SI) unit for weight which, of course, is the force due to gravity, is the newton. The kilogram (not gram!) is the SI base unit for mass, not force.
A kilogram measures the mass of an object(SI). If you are looking for the SI unit of volume, it is liters, or kiloliters.
A basic unit of weight in the metric system is a Newton and that is not equivalent to 39.37 of any standard units in any standard system.
(weight) force = newtons, 1 kilogram force = 9.80665 newtons
grams Correction: The gram is a unit of mass, not weight. The kilogram, not the gram, is the base unit of mass. The SI unit for weight is the newton, but it's a derived unit calculated using mass and gravitational pull.
It stands for standard Weight, the unit for light intensity.
Umm... kilograms.
(weight) force = newtons, 1 kilogram force = 9.80665 newtons
