Explanation:

The unit of unified atomic mass - symbol "u" -1 or dalton - symbol "Da" - is a standard unit of mass defined as the twelfth part (1/12) of the mass of an atom, neutral and unbound , of carbon-12, in its fundamental electrical and nuclear state, and is equivalent to 1,660 538 921 (73) × 10-27 kg (value recommended by CODATA).

The answer is: The twelfth part (1/12) of the mass of an atom, neutral and unbound, of carbon-12.

Answer 2

An atomic mass unit (symbolized AMU or amu) is defined as precisely 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The carbon-12 (C-12) atom has six protons and six neutrons in its nucleus.
