The relative atomic mass (Ar) of an element is the average mass of its isotopes compared with an atom of the 12C isotope.
The relative formula mass of a compound (Mr) is found by adding up the relative atomic masses of the atoms shown in its formula.
One mole of a substance is its Ar or Mr weighed out in grams.
Percentages of elements in compounds can be calculated from Ar and Mr.
