Question

what is atomic mass unit why we need this unit​

Answer 1

Explanation:

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

Answer 2

Answer:

We need the amu to establish the value of Avogadro's number—the number of particles in one mole. One amu is currently defined as one 12th the mass of one atom of C-12*. By definition the number of amu that equals exactly one gram is Avogadro's number.

The above convention has a several desirable consequences:

The value of Avogadro's number can be empirically established with great percision

The mass of 1 mole of protons, or one mole of neutrons, is very close to 1.00 g

The mass of one mole of a particular isotope is very close to an integer

The atomic mass in g/mol equals the atomic mass in amu/atom
