Atomic weight - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Atomic weight (symbol: A r ) is a dimensionless physical quantity, the ratio of the average mass of atoms of an element (from a given source) to 1/12 of the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The ter...

Explanation of atomic weight - Succeed in Physical Science: School for Champions ... Unfortunately, this idea proved not valid as exact measurements of the actual weights of the various elements and sub-atomic particles were made. The new definition of an atomic mass unit is that it is 1/12 of the atomic weight of Carbon-12.

In 1961, it was finally decided to adopt carbon-12 as the basis for all other atomic weights. Under this system still in use today, the atomic weight of carbon-12 is taken to be exactly 12 and the atomic mass unit is defined as exactly one-twelfth the mass of carbon-12.

The legend stated that an element's atomic weight was the weight of one atom of that element compared to one atom of carbon. Given that, my son asked me this: Why isn't the atomic weight of carbon 1 since it's being compared to itself?

The subscripts to the right mean that it contains 6 atoms of carbon, 12 atoms of hydrogen, and 6 atoms of oxygen. The atomic weight for carbon is 12, for hydrogen is 1, and for oxygen is 16, so the molecular weight of glucose can be calculated thus:
