  2. Relative atomic mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_atomic_mass

    Relative atomic mass is determined by the average atomic mass, or the weighted mean of the atomic masses of all the atoms of a particular chemical element found in a particular sample, which is then compared to the atomic mass of carbon-12. [10] This comparison is the quotient of the two weights, which makes the value dimensionless (having no ...

  3. Atomic mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_mass

    For example, the relative isotopic mass of a carbon-12 atom is exactly 12. For comparison, the atomic mass of a carbon-12 atom is exactly 12 daltons. Alternately, the atomic mass of a carbon-12 atom may be expressed in any other mass units: for example, the atomic mass of a carbon-12 atom is 1.992 646 882 70 (62) × 10 −26 kg.

  5. Carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_cycle

    Detail of anthropogenic carbon flows, showing cumulative mass in gigatons during years 1850–2018 (left) and the annual mass average during 2009–2018 (right). [ 114 ] The largest and one of the fastest growing human impacts on the carbon cycle and biosphere is the extraction and burning of fossil fuels , which directly transfer carbon from ...

  6. Atmospheric carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_carbon_cycle

    Schematic representation of the overall perturbation of the global carbon cycle caused by anthropogenic activities, averaged from 2010 to 2019. [1] The atmospheric carbon cycle accounts for the exchange of gaseous carbon compounds, primarily carbon dioxide (CO 2), between Earth's atmosphere, the oceans, and the terrestrial biosphere.

  7. Natural abundance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_abundance

    The relative atomic mass (a weighted average, weighted by mole-fraction abundance figures) of these isotopes is the atomic weight listed for the element in the periodic table. The abundance of an isotope varies from planet to planet, and even from place to place on the Earth, but remains relatively constant in time (on a short-term scale).

  8. Standard atomic weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_atomic_weight

    The standard atomic weight (A r °(Cu)) for copper is the average, weighted by their natural abundance, and then divided by the atomic mass constant m u. [ 1 ] The standard atomic weight of a chemical element (symbol A r °(E) for element "E") is the weighted arithmetic mean of the relative isotopic masses of all isotopes of that element ...

  9. Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commission_on_Isotopic...

    With the discovery of oxygen isotopes in 1929, a situation arose where chemists based their calculations on the average atomic mass (atomic weight) of oxygen whereas physicists used the mass of the predominant isotope of oxygen, oxygen-16. This discrepancy became undesired and a unification between the chemistry and physics was necessary. [13]
