Answer:

Difference Between Atomic Weight and Atomic Mass - ThoughtCo Atomic mass (ma) is the mass of an atom. A single atom has a set number of protons and neutrons, so the mass is unequivocal (won't change) and is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the atom. ... Atomic weight is a weighted average of the mass of all the atoms of an element, based on the abundance of isotopes.
