The mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.

Number of protons + Neutrons. Many people say as number of electrons + neutrons, but this is not perfect as an atom might gain/lose electron but the number of protons is always constant
