Atomic Mass Unit
The atomic mass unit (u) is a standard unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights, defined as one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
History/Origin
The atomic mass unit was introduced in the early 20th century to provide a convenient scale for atomic weights. It was originally based on the mass of hydrogen but was later standardized to be one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom, which was adopted as a reference in 1961 by the IUPAC.
Current Use
The atomic mass unit is widely used in chemistry and physics to express atomic and molecular masses, facilitating calculations in molecular chemistry, nuclear physics, and related fields.
Mina (Biblical Hebrew)
The mina is an ancient unit of weight used in biblical times, primarily in the Hebrew and surrounding cultures, typically equivalent to about 50 shekels or roughly 50 grams.
History/Origin
The mina originates from ancient Near Eastern civilizations, including the Hebrew, Phoenician, and Babylonian cultures. It was widely used in biblical texts and persisted through various periods as a standard measure of weight for precious metals and goods.
Current Use
Today, the mina is largely obsolete as a unit of measurement. It is primarily referenced in historical, religious, and scholarly contexts related to biblical times and ancient history.
