An atomic mass unit (symbolized AMU or amu) is defined as precisely 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The carbon-12 (C-12) atom has six protons and six neutrons in its nucleus. ... The AMU is used to express the relative masses of, and thereby differentiate between, various isotopes of elements.
