How about for atoms?
C-12 isotope
- 6 protons
- 6 neutrons
- 12 atomic mass unit
Think about these:
The atomic mass of One atom of Se-77 is
Cu-63 is 62.93 amu. 6.410 times as heavy
This means that relative as an atom of C-12.
to C-12, one atom of
Cu-63 is 62.93/12 or What is the atomic
5.244 times the mass of mass of Se-77?
a C-12 atom
More Examples:
1. C-13, 13.00335 amu
2. Cu-65, 64.9278 amu
3. K-40, 39.963999 amu
4. Zr-92, 91.905040 amu
5. Ga-69, 5.7438 times

Atomic Mass Atomic Mass Unit
- the mass of an atom of a - a unit of mass used to express
chemical element expressed atomic and molecular masses,
in atomic mass units - equal to one-twelfth of the mass of
an atom of carbon-12
- the atomic mass of a single - equivalent to 1 g/mol
atom is simply its - unified atomic mass unit (u),
total mass and is typically - Dalton (Da),
expressed in atomic - universal mass unit, either amu or
mass units or amu. AMU
