Weight in the metric system is a function of gravitational acceleration, and is considered force, so the unit is in Newtons. Mass is measured in grams or kilograms.

What Check all of the proper units of weight in the metric system.?

There is no specific "unit of weight" in the SI (the commonly used metric system). Since a weight is a force, you would use a unit of force - the newton.(If you mean MASS, the SI unit for that is the kilogram.)

What are all of the proper units of mass in the metric system?

in the mks (SI) metric, the base unit is kilogram. in the cgs metric system, the base unit is gram. There are many prefixes that can be added to gram to determine the magnitude in power of ten. See related link for a list of prefixes. Right, and don't forget the tonne. Though equivalent to 1 megagram or 1000 kg the word tonne is commonly used.
