Formula to Convert Atomic Mass Unit to Gram
Grams = Atomic Mass Units × 1.6605 × 10-24
Example
Convert 12 atomic mass units (approx mass of Carbon-12 atom) to grams:
12 × 1.6605 × 10-24 = 1.9926 × 10-23 g

| 10 | 1.661e-23 |
| 100 | 1.661e-22 |
| 1,000 | 1.661e-21 |
| 1020 | 1.661e-4 |
| 6.022 × 1023 (1 Mole) | 1.000 |
About the Units
The atomic mass unit (u) is used to quantify the mass of atoms and particles. The gram (g) is a metric unit of mass used for everyday objects. The relationship between them is defined by Avogadro's number: it takes exactly one mole (approx 6.022 × 1023) of atomic mass units to equal exactly one gram.
