How do I calculate for an atomic mass of an element

For any given isotope, the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus is called the mass number. This is because each proton and each neutron weigh one atomic mass unit (amu). By adding together the number of protons and neutrons and multiplying by 1 amu, you can calculate the mass of the atom.

Ifound this on google “laws of chemical combination. it states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. it stated that a given compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by weight.” i hope this you for what your looking for.
