Mass Number
The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons (also total nucleon) in the nucleus.

See also Atomic Mass Unit, Atomic Mass.
•
Atomic Mass
The atomic mass is the mass of the naturally occurring mixture of isotopes of an element.

See also Mass Number, Atomic Mass Unit and Isotope.
•
Atomic Mass Unit
(AMU) is equal to the mass of one-twelfth of a carbon-12 atom (6 protons + 6 neutrons (+ 6 electrons)), a 'very' little less than 1.66 x 10-24 gram.

See also Mass Number and Atomic Mass.
•
Isobar
Isobars are atoms with equal mass number but different atomic number.
•
Isotope
Isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons in the core. Isotopes have the same electronic structure as the given element and thus have a nearly identical chemical behavior. Larger elements tend to have more stable isotopes than smaller ones.
For example, I123, I125 and I131 are isotopes of iodine; they have a different mass number.
