The atomic weight (not mass) of a chemical element is the ratio between the average mass of the atoms of this element to 1/12 from the Atomic Mass of carbon-12.
The atomic mass is a term applied only to specific isotopes; the unit is the same as above. Is a value denoting the total mass of all the protons, neutrons, and electrons in an isotope.
The mass number tells us the number (the sum) of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
The atomic number, on the other hand, tells us how many protons are in the nucleus of an atom.
IUPAC publish periodically tables of atomic weights - the last edition is from 2009-2010.
For the atomic masses of isotopes the last published edition is The AME 2003 atomic mass evaluation, edited by Audi, Wapstra and Thibault.

What does the atomic mass tell you?
It tells you the average amount of protons and neutrons within the nucleus of an atom. In other words, atomic mass - atomic number (protons)= the number of neutrons within the nucleus.
What is the atomic mass-?
The atomic mass is the mass of a molecule, atomic particle or sub-atomic particle.
What can the atomic mass tell you about an atom?
the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
What is the atomic mass of colbat?
Cobalt is an atomic mass of 58.93 atomic mass units
The equation of atomic mass?
== The equation of atomic mass is protons+nuetrons== atomic mass. ===
What do the atomic number and atomic mass tell you about an atom?
Atomic number tells the number of protons and electrons, but i don't remember for atomic mass.
What does the atomic mass tell you about the atom?
The Atomic Mass of an element tells you the average mass of an atom in the element.
What does an element's atomic mass tell about the atoms that make up that element?
Atomic Mass is the no. of protons+no. of nuetron
What do the atomic number and mass number tell about an atom?
Atomic number tells the number of protons and electrons, but i don't remember for Atomic Mass.
What do the atomic number and mass number tell you about an atom?
Atomic number tells the number of protons and electrons, but i don't remember for Atomic Mass.
What does an element's atomic mass tell us about the atoms that make up that element?
atomic mass is the no. of protons+no. of nuetron
What information does the periodic chart tell you?
Symbol Name Atomic Number Atomic Mass
What does the atomic mass of an element tell?
The gram atomic weight or gram Atomic Mass of a chemical element is the mass in grams of Avogadro's number of atoms of the element with the isotopic proportions found in nature.
How do you tell figure out the atomic mass?
Atomic mass is the number of protons + the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. On the periodic table, the average atomic mass of an element will the be number at the bottom of each box.
What does the decimal tell you in an atomic mass?
that there are stable isotopes of that element
What is the atomic mass of an atom with 5 electrons?
you can't tell the atomic mass of an atom if either the number of protons or neutrons is missing. But Boron with 5 protons and 6 neutrons has and atomic mass of 11.
What is relative atomic mass and how it is related with gram?
when atomic mass of an element expressed in gram atom is called gram atom mass . and formula is number of gram atom=given mass (in gram) by atomic mass ( in gram )
