Meaning of Atomic Masses
• Give relative masses of atoms based on C–12 scale. • The Most common isotope of carbon is assigned an atomic mass of 12 amu.• The amu is defined as 1/12 of the mass of one neutral carbon atom

Masses of Individual Atoms
The atomic masses of H, Cl, and Ni are H = 1.008 amu Cl = 35.45 amu Ni = 58.69 amu
Therefore 1.008g H, 35.45g Cl, and 58.69g Ni all have the same number of atoms: NA
NA = Avogadro’s number = 6.022 x 1023
1.008g H6.022 x 1023 atoms
