Redefinition of mole 2019

The mole was redefined in 2019 to $6.02214076\times 10^{23}$ elementary entities. I've learnt that this means that the mass of one mole of Carbon 12 is now no longer exactly 12g. However isn't Avagadros number or $6.02214076\times 10^{23}$ a measure of the number of atoms in 12g of Carbon 12? It seem this is no longer the case, so how exactly is Avagadros number now calculated?




* The [Avogadro constant](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avogadro_constant) $N\_A$ was the approximate number (as far as measurement allowed to know) of carbon-12 atoms in $\pu{12 g}$ of pure carbon-12 isotope.
* Now $N\_A$ is $\pu{6.02214076×10^23 mol-1}$ by definition, i.e. it is not calculated.


Therefore, $\pu{1 mol} = \pu{6.02214076×10^23}$ atoms of carbon-12 does not have exactly the mass $\pu{12 g}$.

Note that the element molar masses have uncertainty much bigger that the shift due Avogadro number redefinition, because of isotope abundance fluctuation. The exception are elements with a single natural isotope, where it is comparable.
