A scale calibration weight allows a person to check that a set of scales are reading the correct figures. This works by placing a calibration weight of which its exact weight is knows and checking that the scale reads the same weight. If not, then the scales will need to be calibrated.
Temperature is measured with thermometers that may be calibrated to a variety of temperature scales
Temperature is not called Fahrenheit or Celsius; temperature is measured in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius.The names Fahrenheit and Celsius are derived from the creators of the temperature scales: Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit and Anders Celsius.
The Fahrenheit scale is not absolute and also is obsolete.The absolute scale is Kelvin.
Some rain gauges are calibrated in centimeters; some have both CM and inches
A thermometric scale is a type of scale that measures degrees.
Scales that aren't calibrated are unreliable.

Strictly, it's measuring weight, but most are calibrated to give mass.
You would need a metric calibrated scale to measure kilograms.
to make sure your measeurments are correct
That's because you want to get the weight accurately.

Assuming the scale is new, and has been calibrated properly, it should give an accurate reading. To be sure, compare weights on an electric, and traditional scale.
Cell size is measured in nanometers (nm) using a calibrated scale on the microscope objective.
The pH scale ranges from 1 to 14. 1 is extremely acidic, 7 in neutral (pure water), and 14 is extremely basic.
The word "calibrated" refers to the process of adjusting, measuring, or standardizing a device or instrument to ensure accurate and precise results. It involves setting or aligning the instrument to a known reference or standard to ensure its measurements or readings are reliable.
Typically by measuring something of a known value. For example, you can test if a scale has been calibrated by weighing a nickel and verifying the scale reads 5g.
