In my text book it states: The relative atomic mass of an element is the average mass of an atom of the element, taking into account all its isotopes and their relative abundance, compared to one atom of carbon 12. At the same time it states that generally, the relative atomic mass is the mass of one mole of atoms of an element. So is it the mass of one moles of atoms of an element or the average mass...
