______________________________

• $\textbf{Atomic Mass}$ is represented by the symbol $\bf\mathsf{(Z)}$. ✔️

• The $\textbf{Atomic Mass}$ is calculated by adding Number of $\underline\textsf{Protons}$ and Number of $\underline\textsf{Neutrons}$. ✔️

• $\underline\textsf{Electrons}$ aren't used in calculating $\textbf{Atomic Mass}$ since their mass is considered to be negligible. ✔️

====================================

• It is different from $\textbf{Atomic Number} \mathsf{(A)}$ as $\boxed{\textsf{Atomic Number = Number of Protons.}}$
