SI · IUPAC
The International System of Units (SI) received its name in 1960. Since the 2019 revision, its definitions use fixed values of seven defining constants. SI base and derived quantities should not be confused with the different units used to express them.
IUPAC does not replace the SI: its Green Book standardises quantities, symbols and terminology in physical chemistry. Its predecessor was published in 1969. The mole is particularly important when counting specified chemical entities.
