Atomic Unit definition of Atomic Unit in the Free Online Encyclopedia.

atomic mass unit or amu, in chemistry and physics, unit defined as exactly 1-12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12, the isotope isotope , in chemistry and physics, one of two or more atoms having the same atomic number but differing in atomic weight and mass number. The concept of isotope was introduced by F.

atomic mass unit

a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights that is equal to one twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12. It is equivalent to 1.66 × 10^--27 kg

atomic mass unit [ə′täm·ik ′mas ′yü·nət]

(physics)

An arbitrarily defined unit in terms of which the masses of individual atoms are expressed; the standard is the unit of mass equal to one-twelfth the mass of the carbon atom, having as nucleus the isotope with mass number 12. Abbreviated amu. Also known as dalton.

Atomic mass unit

An arbitrarily defined unit in terms of which the masses of individual atoms are expressed. One atomic mass unit is defined as exactly of the mass of an atom of the nuclide ¹²C, the predominant isotope of carbon. The unit, also known as the dalton, is often abbreviated amu, and is designated by the symbol u. The relative atomic mass of a chemical element is the average mass of its atoms expressed in atomic mass units.
