Discover the ease of converting atomic mass units to neutron mass with our u to n converter. Developed by Newtum, this tool offers seamless conversions to satisfy your scientific curiosities and precise calculations.
An Atomic Mass Unit (AMU), or dalton (Da), is a standard unit of mass that quantifies the mass of an atom or molecule. It is defined as one twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 in its nuclear and electronic ground state, and it is equivalent to 1.66053906660 × 10^-27 kilograms.
Definition of NeutronMassNeutron mass refers to the mass of a neutron, one of the subatomic particles in an atom's nucleus. It is slightly greater than that of a proton and is measured at approximately 1.67492749804 × 10^-27 kilograms. The neutron's mass is a fundamental constant in physics, essential for calculating nuclear reactions and atomic structures.
Atomic Mass Unit (u) | Neutron Mass (n) |
---|---|
1 u | 1.0014 n |
2 u | 2.0028 n |
3 u | 3.0042 n |
4 u | 4.0056 n |
5 u | 5.0070 n |
6 u | 6.0084 n |
7 u | 7.0098 n |
8 u | 8.0112 n |
9 u | 9.0126 n |
10 u | 10.0140 n |
1 u = 1.0014 n
1 n = 0.9986 u
Example 1:
Convert 12 u to n:
12 u = 12 × 1.0014 n = 12.0168 n
Example 2:
Convert 7 u to n:
7 u = 7 × 1.0014 n = 7.0098 n
The Atomic Mass Unit to Neutron Mass Converter has its origins in the early 20th century with the discovery of isotopes and the need for precision in measuring atomic mass.

Example 1:
To convert 15 atomic mass units (u) to neutron mass (n), the calculation is:
15 u × 1.0014 n/u = 15.021 n
Example 2:
Converting 20 u to n:
20 u × 1.0014 n/u = 20.028 n
