Units explained
Carbon-12 Atom Mass
The mass of a single carbon-12 atom is exactly 12 u by definition, about 1.9926E-26 kg.
The reference nuclide that defines the unified atomic mass scale.
The defining standard for the atomic mass unit.
Chosen as the mass standard by IUPAC and IUPAP in 1960-1961.
Ton (assay) (UK)
The assay ton (UK) equals about 32.667 grams, the long-ton analog of the assay ton.
The long-ton version of the assay-ton convenience unit.
Ore assaying in long-ton (imperial) contexts.
Adopted in assay laboratories using the long ton.
