Answer:
12 gram of carbon means a mole of carbon while 12 unified mass of carbon means that the molar mass of carbon is 12 g and that 12 g of carbon make up one mole. It means that 1 mole or 12 u of carbon contain 6.023 × 1023 carbon atoms.
Explanation:
Carbon-12 (12C) is the more abundant of the two stable isotopes of carbon (carbon-13 being the other), amounting to 98.93% of the element carbon;[1] its abundance is due to the triple-alpha process by which it is created in stars. Carbon-12 is of particular importance in its use as the standard from which atomic masses of all nuclides are measured, thus, its atomic mass is exactly 12 daltons by definition. Carbon-12 is composed of 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons.
