as does the same amount of any other substance, including for example yoghurt.

That number is just the E in E=mc²

when comparing to kg I will assume the mass unit, since comparing a mass value to a force has no meaning.

when compared to a value in Kg, the only logical interpretation is the mass pound. If it were lbf, the si unit conversion would be Newtons.

Having the same name for two different, but easily mixed up units is really annoying haha

The pund itself is defined as 0.45359237 Kg
