MCQ
Modern atomic mass scale is based on the mass of:
- AH −1
- BC −12
- CC −14
- DC −16
✓
Answer
- C −12
Explanation:
Modern atomic weight scale is based on C −12.
The standard unit for expressing the mass of atom is amu (atomic mass unit).
It is equal to $\frac{1}{12}$ of the mass of an atom of carbon -12 equal to 1.6605 × 10−19g.
Amu is also called as avogram.
Avogram is a unit of mass and weight equal to one gram divided by the Avogadro's number.
