The phrase "relative mass" is a disambiguation of relativistic mass, which is defined by this equation:
mrel = m0/ SQRT( 1 - v2/c2)
m0 is the rest mass, v is the velocity of the particle, and c is the speed of light.
(For more information, see Lorentz Factor and the topic of mass in Einsteins paper on Special Relativity. {Note that Einstein's convention was to refer to relativistic mass as plain ol' mand not mrel.})

How the relative atomic mass is related to gram?
relative atomic mass
Why Cu has a relative atomic mass?
All elements have an atomic mass relative to 12C having a mass of 12.
What is molecular mass?
the relative molecular mass or molecular weight of a compound is the mass of a molecule of the compound relative to the mass of a carbon atom taken as exactly 12.
What is the difference between relative isotopic mass and relative atomic mass?
Atomic Mass is the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.Relative atomic mass is the ratio of the average mass of one atom of an element to one twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12.Relative isotopic mass is the mass of an atom of an isotope of an element compared with one-twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon-12.Thus an element will have ONE Relative Atomic Mass but there may be MANY individual Relative Isotopic Masses for an Element (depending on how many Isotopes it has).
What is the approximate atomic mass of a neutron?
The relative mass of a neutron compared with a proton is one.
Why is mass not relative?
Mass IS relative to the speed you are going.
