Heya user !!!

There are 3 ways of finding atomic mass

1. Carbon 12 atom.

The first way is comparing the atom whose atomic mass is to be found out with C-12 carbon atom. The atomic mass is the relative mass compared to 1/12th of mass of C-12 atom.

2. Number of protons and neutrons.

The second way is adding up the number of protons and neutrons present in an atom which constitute it's mass.

3. Average of the isotopes.

Third way is calculating the average of the mass of all the isotopes of an element.
