It should give you both directions; ounces to grams and grams to ounces. The metric system is designed to simplify quantities. Instead of 5280 feet per mile, you have the much simpler 1000 meters per kilometer. There's 100 centimeters per meter. 1000 mililitres per litre. Water boils at 100 degrees Celcius, and so on.

This is dependent upon how the chart is made up. Some charts view ounces and grams as not being metric. There are many conversions online that can tell you the conversion. 1 ounce = 28.35 grams. You can use these numbers to convert any volume of ounces to grams by performing simple math.

Yes, it should convert the US or UK specific measurement units to any corresponding metric measurement units (mass, distance, volume and so on)
