Atomic Mass Unit

What is a 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.

Origin of the atomic mass unit

Introduced to give atomic and molecular masses convenient numerical values.

Where it is used

Atomic, molecular, and nuclear physics and chemistry.

When and where it was developed

The unified (carbon-12) scale was adopted by IUPAC and IUPAP in 1960-1961.

Tael

What is a tael?

The tael equals about 37.8 grams (ten mace).

Origin of the tael

From Malay 'tahil'; the Chinese unit is the 'liang'.

Where it is used

East Asian precious-metal and traditional-medicine commerce.

When and where it was developed

A long-standing East Asian trade weight, with regional variants.

Atomic Mass Unit to Tael conversion formula

Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.

The relationship between atomic mass unit and taels:

1 u = 4.393038e-26 tael
1 tael = 2.276329e+25 u

To convert atomic mass unit to taels, multiply the value in atomic mass unit by 4.393038e-26. To reverse, multiply taels by 2.276329e+25.

How to use this converter

Type a value into the calculator. The result in taels updates as you type. Tap a quick value, copy the result with one click, or use the swap arrow to jump straight to the Tael to Atomic Mass Unit converter for the reverse direction.

Step-by-step: convert atomic mass unit to taels

  1. Write down the value in atomic mass unit (u).
  2. Multiply that value by the factor 4.393038e-26.
  3. The product is the equivalent value in taels (tael).
  4. To reverse, multiply the tael value by 2.276329e+25.

Worked examples

Example 1 — Convert 1 u to tael:
1 × 4.393038e-26 = 4.393038e-26 tael

Example 2 — Convert 100 u to tael:
100 × 4.393038e-26 = 4.393038e-24 tael

Real-world example — Sub-micron to millimeter

500,000 atomic mass unit converts to a small everyday quantity in taels — useful when relating optical-wavelength specifications to physical mounting hardware.

500000 u × 4.393038e-26 = 2.196519e-20 tael

Real-world example — From wavelengths to millimeter-scale objects

A value of one million atomic mass unit sounds vast at the atomic scale but converts to a small everyday quantity in taels — useful when relating optical-wavelength specifications to physical mounting hardware.

1000000 u × 4.393038e-26 = 4.393038e-20 tael
