What are Atomic Mass Unit and Deuteron Mass

Definition of Atomic Mass Unit

An Atomic Mass Unit, abbreviated as 'u', is a standard unit of mass that quantifies the mass of atoms or molecules. It is defined as one-twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 at rest and in its ground state. This unit provides a convenient scale for expressing and comparing the masses of other atoms, molecules, and subatomic particles.

Definition of Deuteron Mass

Deuteron Mass is the mass of a deuteron, which is the nucleus of a deuterium atom. It consists of one proton and one neutron and is denoted by the symbol 'D'. The mass of a deuteron is slightly less than the sum of the individual masses of a free proton and neutron due to the binding energy that holds them together.
