Finding amu (1 Viewer)

[machine2035]

So how do we find the amu of something with so much accuracy (I am talking 5 or 6 decimal places).

In my textbook they use this accuracy in the data tables, are we expected to use this much accuracy if they don't provide us the info in a table etc.

and if they do, how do we do it. I only know how to find it as a whole number (or with 1 decimal place)

Cheers!

Oh please Boardofstudies have mercy on us, don't ask us to find mass-defect/binding energy.

I actually haven't seen a question on this in the past papers I have been going over.

If you have seen one please post it up. I would prefer a binding energy question over Standard Model of Matter question any day of the week!
