  • B$\dfrac{\text{average mass of naturally occurring atoms of an element}}{\text{mass of one atom of } ^{12}\text{C} \times 12}$
  • C$\dfrac{\text{average mass of naturally occurring atoms of an element}}{\text{mass of one atom of } ^{12}\text{C}}$
  • D$\dfrac{\text{mass of one atom of } ^{12}\text{C}}{\text{average mass of naturally occurring atoms of an element}}$
