About the Units
The atomic mass unit (u) is used to quantify the mass of subatomic particles, atoms, and molecules. The pound (lb) is a unit of weight in the US customary system. Because atoms are so small, it takes approximately 273 septillion ($2.73 \times 10^{26}$) atomic mass units to make just one pound.
