Most investigators would measure the mass of a can in grams or, depending on the size of the can, kilograms. A small can might resemble a soup can, and a large can, like a galvanized steel trash can (like the kind with a fitted lid) would be larger and (obviously) heavier. Smaller units would be used for the small can (grams) and the larger units (kilograms) would be used on the larger can.
