Average weight of an element expressed in atomic mass units?
Average weight of an element expressed in Atomic Mass units.
What is the molecular weight of carbon?
The molecular weight of carbon is 12.0107 g/mol, or grams per molecule. This is calculated by dividing the total weight of the atom by the weight of all the atomic mass units and multiplying by 100.
What is a protons mass calculated by?
They are calculated by atomic mass units (amu) proton-1amu neutron-1amu electron-0amu
Do weight and mass use the same units?
No. Units of mass include kilogram, gram, poundmass, and slug. Weight is expressed in units of force. They include newton, poundforce, ounce, ton. Especially in the metric system, units of mass and force are often used interchangeably. This practice arises from a basic misunderstanding of the difference between mass and weight, and is incorrect.
Weight is measured in units called?
Weight is measured in units called newtons , while mass is measured in units called grams and kilograms.

What does the atomical number represent?
The Atomic Mass is the mass (weight) of the element measured in atomic mass units (AMU)
What is a protons mass calculated by?
They are calculated by atomic mass units (amu) proton-1amu neutron-1amu electron-0amu
Are metric tons short tons and long tons mass units or weight units?
weight
Give the units of mass and weight?
According to SI System of Units: Unit of Mass - Kilogram (Kg) Unit of Weight - Newton (N)
How do you find out a weight in mass?
You use the formula weight = mass x gravity. In SI units, the gravity is 9.8 meters per second square, weight is in Newtons, mass is in kilograms.You use the formula weight = mass x gravity.

What is calculating mass?
Calculating mass means determining the amount of matter in an object: the amount of 'stuff' in an object. Mass should never be calculated by units of weight ( like Newtons). One should follow the standard SI units (like kilograms, grams, milligrams) Happy to help......
What units are mass and weight mesured in?
The SI unit for mass is the Kilogram. The SI unit for weight in the Newton.
Do weight and mass use the same units?
No. Units of mass include kilogram, gram, poundmass, and slug. Weight is expressed in units of force. They include newton, poundforce, ounce, ton. Especially in the metric system, units of mass and force are often used interchangeably. This practice arises from a basic misunderstanding of the difference between mass and weight, and is incorrect.
What are mass and weight linked by?
Weight = Mass x g g = acceleration due to gravity. (g ~= 9.8 m/s2 Weight is a Force and is calculated in newtons(N) or dynes. Mass is calculated in kilograms(kg).
How are grams and mass related?
Mass can be expressed in grams and other weight units.
