Atomic Mass Au (& Secrets: Uses, Sources and more...) 2022

As anyone would guess, every atom has mass, an important physical property, even Gold. But how do we know how much does a Au atom weight?

First of all, if we know the atom symbol, let's say Au, we can open any periodic table and search for Gold.

In the case of Gold the answer is 196,96654. However there is a lot of funny facts about Gold that most people don't know. Shall we have a look?
