The molar mass constant converts relative atomic mass or relative molecular mass into molar mass. It is approximately $1\mathrm{g}\mathrm{mo}{\mathrm{l}}^{-1}$. Its SI numerical value is determined experimentally: the exact Avogadro constant multiplies an experimentally determined unified atomic mass unit in kilograms. Treating $M_{\mathrm{u}}$ as exactly $1\mathrm{g}\mathrm{mo}{\mathrm{l}}^{-1}$ is therefore an excellent elementary-calculation approximation, rather than a defining equality of the modern SI.^[ref]

For a chemical element in a specified population, its relative atomic mass or atomic weight is the dimensionless ratio $A_{\mathrm{r}}=\bar{m}/\mathrm{u}$, with $\bar{m}$ the mean neutral atomic mass weighted by isotopic abundance. For the illustrative neon population, $A_{\mathrm{r}}\approx 20.1800$, whereas $\bar{m}\approx 20.1800\mathrm{u}$ has mass units.^[ref]
