Relative molecular mass
ID: relative-molecular-mass
The relative molecular mass is the dimensionless ratio of a specified mean molecule mass to the unified atomic mass unit, written when treated as a physical quantity:Thus a relative molecular mass of approximately and a molar mass of approximately describe related quantities with different units. The conversion uses the molar mass constant, rather than identifying a dimensionless number with a mass per mole.
