Units explained
Atomic Mass Unit
One unified atomic mass unit (u) is defined as 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom, about 1.6605E-27 kg.
Introduced to give atomic and molecular masses convenient numerical values.
Atomic, molecular, and nuclear physics and chemistry.
The unified (carbon-12) scale was adopted by IUPAC and IUPAP in 1960-1961.
Clove
The clove was an English trade weight equal to 7 or 8 pounds (here 8 lb, about 3.63 kg).
A medieval English unit for weighing wool and cheese.
Obsolete; historical English wool and dairy commerce.
Defined by the Statute of 1430 under Henry VI.

Worked examples
Example 1 — Convert 1 u to clove:
1 × 4.576081e-28 = 4.576081e-28 clove
Example 2 — Convert 100 u to clove:
100 × 4.576081e-28 = 4.576081e-26 clove
Real-world example — From sub-micron to human scale
One billion atomic mass unit equals one clove — the conversion that drives home the gulf between atomic-scale features and everyday objects in physics curricula.
1e+9 u × 4.576081e-28 = 4.576081e-19 clove
Real-world example — Bridging nine orders of magnitude
500 million atomic mass unit equals a value comfortably in the human-scale cloves range. Physics problems that span this gap are common when comparing the wavelength of light to the path length of an experiment.
5e+8 u × 4.576081e-28 = 2.28804e-19 clove
