What is the atomic mass unit?

The atomic mass unit (amu) is a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights. It is approximately equal to the mass of a proton or neutron, and is defined as 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom.


What unit of measure is used to measure atomic weight?

expressed in unified atomic mass unit, amuHowever, for practical purposes in the laboratory the relative atomic mass is used so the unit would be gram. (Relative atomic mass compares the mass of all elements to that of the carbon-12 isotope taken as exactly 12)


What is the standard on which the amu is made?

The atomic mass unit uses carbon-12 as a standard. The atomic mass unit is one twelfth of the mass of one atom of the isotope carbon-12.
