What units to use
If a question doesn't specify what units to give our final answer in, what should we default to? Thanks!

Re: What units to use
I am not 100% sure, but my best guess would be to use the SI unit for the category of answer. Ex// weight in kg or length in meters

Re: What units to use
In addition to what the above person mentioned, it might also be good to check if the question is asking for something with units at all. There are some questions that require an answer that has no unit (i.e. if you are providing a ratio or something like electronegativity which has no units).
