Answer:

Unified mass (u) refers to atomic mass unit (abbreviated as amu). It is defined as 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. According to latest IUPAC guidelines, we use the symbol u instead of amu to represent masses of atoms.

  • The mass of an atom is called the atomic mass (ma or m).
  • Although the kilogramme (symbol: kg) is the SI unit of mass, atomic mass is commonly stated in non-SI units such as the atomic mass unit (amu), unified mass (u), or dalton (symbol: Da), where 1 amu, 1 u, or 1 Da is defined as 1/12 of the mass of a single carbon-12 atom at rest.  
  • The nucleus' protons and neutrons make up nearly all of an atom's total mass, with electrons and nuclear binding energy contributing only a small amount.
  • As a result, when expressed in daltons, the numeric value of the atomic mass is almost identical to the mass number.
  • The atomic mass constant may be used to convert weight in kilogrammes to weight in daltons.
