One atomic mass unit is equal to?

(Given, mass of one carbon-12 atom =1.992×1023)

  1. 1.66×1025g
  2. 1.66×1027g
  3. 1.66×1024g
  4. 1.66×1023g

A
1.66×1027g
B
1.66×1024g
C
1.66×1023g
D
1.66×1025g
Solution
Verified by Toppr

One atomic mass unit (amu or u) is equal to 1/12th of the mass of an atom of carbon-12.

Mass of an atom of carbon-12 =1.992×1023 g

1 amu = 1/12 mass of carbon-12 atom =112×1.992×1023 =1.66×1024g
