We need to calculate 1 amu in grams using the C-12 atom
An atomic unit of mass is defined as accurately 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom. The carbon-12 atom has six neutrons and six protons in its nucleus. The atomic unit mass is symbolized as amu.
1 amu = Average of the proton rest mass and the neutron rest mass.
1 amu = (Mass of 1 126C atom)/12
1amu = (1.994 x 10-23)/12
1amu = 1.662 x 10-24g 0r 1.662 x 10-27kg.
Answer=>1amu = 1.662 x 10-24g 0r 1.662 x 10-27kg.
