The formula to calculate the Element Mass is:
\[ Me = N + P \]
Where:
The Element Mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in an element, measured in atomic mass units (amu). This value represents the total mass of the nucleus of an atom.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ Me = 6 + 6 = 12 \text{ amu} \]
The Element Mass (Me) is 12 amu.
