Atomic mass (ma) is the mass of an atom. A single atom has a set number of protons and neutrons, so the mass is unequivocal (won't change) and is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the atom. ... Atomic weight is a weighted average of the mass of all the atoms of an element, based on the abundance of isotopes. It consists of one proton and one electron. The atomic mass for an atom of hydrogen is one dalton, which is calculated from the lone proton. Remember, electrons are too small to be considered in the atomic mass. Helium is the second lightest element, and is larger than hydrogen.
