Answer 2

The modern unit of determining the mass of an atom is Dalton.

• There are different types of units which can be used to determine different quantities of mass.
• Now, the usual units of mass like gram, kilograms, etc cannot be used to measure the mass of an extremely small atom.
• In this case, we use the unit "Atomic Mass Unit" or "AMU". This AMU unit is also popularly known as the Dalton unit.
