Atomic Mass Unit
The universal mass unit, abbreviated u (sometimes amu for atomic mass unit), is defined as one-twelfth of the mass of the 12 C atom which has been defined to be exactly 12 u. The absolute mass of a 12 C atom is obtained by dividing the value 12 by the Avogadro number ( N A = 6.022 137 × 10 23 ). 1 Atomic Mass Unit = 1.8617E-27 Kilogram 1 Kilogram = 2. Pound ∴ 1 Atomic Mass Unit = 3.3873E-27 Pound.
