The mass of an atom of C12 is exactly 12 Atomic Mass units by definition. In other words, the precise value of Mu was chosen by the scientific community to make C12 weigh 12 Mu.
The exact mass (in grams) of 1 Mu is 1/NA where NA is Avogadro's number. That means that the mass of 1 atom of C12 weighs 12/NA grams. Since NA ~=6 X 10 23
1 atom of C12 weighs 12/(6 x 1023 ) grams, or ~= 2 x 10-23 gm.
12 (exact by definition) grams/Avogadro's Number = about 12/6.022 X 1023 = 1.993 X 10-23 grams.

All atomic masses are determined by comparing them to the mass of an atom of carbon12. One atomic mass unit equals one twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon12. That's why its called relativeatomic mass.
16 amu
That has an atomic mass of (45 + 56), or 101.
The approximate mass is 11. Technically you could express this in units of daltons as 11 Da (Daltons previously called amu, atomic mass unit, or as 11 (the dimensionless, relative atomic mass which chemists simply call atomic weight) .
The atomic mass of Carbon is 12.0107 The atomic mass of Gold is 196.96657 So an atom of Gold is about 16 times heavier than an atom of Carbon.

The conventional standard atomic weight of the hydrogen atom is 1,008 amu.
16 amu
Bromine has an approximate atomic mass of 79.904.
That has an atomic mass of (45 + 56), or 101.
Atomic Number :- atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. (since atoms are electrically neutral the number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons in an atom) Atomic Mass :- atomic mass of an element is the number which tells us how many times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of hydrogen (whose atomic weight is taken as unity [1])

Atomic number of an atom shows the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. OR Atomic number of an atom is the number of electrons in the atom when the atom neutrally charged
Average atomic mass of Ca = 40.1 Average atomic mass of O = 16.0 Mr(Ca)/Mr(O) = 40.1/16.0 = 2.51 Thus the calcium atom is about 2.5 times heavier than the oxygen atom.
Silicon atoms, atomic number 14, have 14 protons in the nucleus. The neutral atom then has 14 electrons. Silicon 28 the most common isotope of silicon has 14 neutrons in the nucleus giving a mass number of 28. The Atomic Mass of silicon 28 relative to carbon12=12. is 27.9769265325(19)
