The known weighted-average
mass of all the naturally occurring* isotopes for an element is the atomic mass of the element.

Isotopes.
isotopes
The answer is the atomic weight of the original element: It's the number on the top left of each element square of the Periodic Table.
Atomic mass number is the average atomic mass for that element, which is : All the isotopes' masses known for that element averaged up. Atomic number is the element's "identity", the number of protons the element and all its isotopes have. All the isotopes of a given element will have different number of electrons and neutrons, but the protons of the element never will change.
isotopes of the same element have different mass number
the Atomic Mass
Isotopes. They differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
Average Atomic Mass, or Atomic Weight of an element (the one shown on the Periodic table).
The atomic mass that you see on the periodic table is an average mass taken from all of the element's known isotopes. Simply find the average of all of the masses of the isotopes of an element.
Isotopes (of the same element) have different mass, this is measured by the mass spectrometer
