The SI unit for mass is the kilogram. It seems appropriate in this case, and is indeed often used for this purpose.

What is the basic unit of weight in the metric system?

Note that weight actually refers to force exerted due to the acceleration of gravity and the mass of an object. It is commonplace to see the terms weight and mass used interchangeably, though. The SI base unit of mass is the kilogram. The original metric system specified the gram as the base mass unit. The SI base unit of force, which technically would be the correct unit of weight is the Newton (kg*m/s2). The dyne is another 'metric' unit of force (g*cm/s2).


What SI unit would be used for the mass of a jar?

How much mass is a kilogram?

That completely depends on two things -- whatliquid substance you have, and how much of it you have. For example, if it's pure water and you have one liter of it, then its mass is very close to 1 kilogram. If you have only one-half liter of it, then its mass is one-half kilogram, but if you replace the water with mercury, then its mass is 6.8 kilograms. So you see, it depends on the substance, and the amount of it.
