Atomic mass
The atomic mass ("m") is the mass of an atom. Its unit is the unified atomic mass units ("abbr." u) where 1 unified atomic mass unit is defined as of the mass of a single carbon-12 atom, at rest. For atoms, the protons and neutrons of the nucleus account for nearly all of the total mass, and the atomic mass measured in u has nearly the same value as the mass number.
Atomic mass unit
The discovery of isotopic oxygen in 1929 led to a divergence in relative atomic mass representation, with isotopically weighted oxygen (i.e., naturally occurring oxygen relative atomic mass) given a value of exactly 16 atomic mass units (amu) in chemistry, while pure O (oxygen-16) was given the mass value of exactly 16 amu in physics.
