Atomic mass of an atom is determined by the combined masses of its protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons contribute most of the mass, as they are much heavier than electrons. The atomic mass is usually given in atomic mass units, where 1 unit is defined as 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
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)
Atomic mass refers to the average mass of an atom of an element, taking into account the masses of its isotopes and their relative abundance. Mass number, on the other hand, is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. Atomic mass is measured in atomic mass units (amu), while mass number is a whole number without units.
Number of protons = atomic number = 6 atomic units Number of protons + neutrons = mass number = 13 atomic units
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.

Mass number, on the other hand, is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. Atomic mass is measured in atomic mass units (amu), while mass number is a whole number without units.
Atomic mass is found by adding together the individual masses of the numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom.--> Atomic Mass = protons + neutrons
Number of protons = atomic number = 6 atomic units Number of protons + neutrons = mass number = 13 atomic units

The atomic mass unit (u) or unified atomic mass unit (amu) is the standard unit used to measure the masses of atomic particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons. 1 atomic mass unit is defined as 1/12th of the mass of a single carbon-12 atom.
the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Atomic mass is found by adding together the individual masses of the numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom. --> Atomic Mass = protons + neutrons
Protons and neutrons.
The atomic mass of an atom is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. It is generally expressed in atomic mass units (amu). The atomic mass is important for determining the overall mass of an atom and for calculating molar masses in chemical reactions.
Neutrons have a slightly higher atomic mass compared to protons. Neutrons weigh approximately 1.0087 atomic mass units, while protons weigh approximately 1.0073 atomic mass units.
