Carbon-12 also more accurately defines a mass for hydrogen, and it is unbound in it's ground state. An atomic mass unit (symbolized AMU or amu) is defined as precisely1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The carbon-12 (C-12) atom has six protons and six neutrons in its nucleus. In imprecise terms, one AMU is the average of the proton rest mass and the neutron rest mass.
