Siemens (unit) plural. For a conducting element, electrical resistance "R" and electrical conductance "G" are defined as where "I" is the electric current through the object and "V" is the voltage (electrical potential difference) across the object. The unit siemens for the conductance "G" is defined by where Ω is the ohm, A is the ampere, and V is the volt. For a device with a conductance of one siemens, the electric current through the device will increase by one ampere for every increase of one volt of electric potential difference across the device. The conductance of a resistor with a resistance
2019 redefinition of SI base units the Avogadro constant, Brian Leonard of the University of Akron, writing in "Metrologia" proposed that the dalton (Da) be redefined such that , but that the unified atomic mass unit () retain its current definition based on the mass of C, ceasing to exactly equal to the dalton. This would result in the dalton and the atomic mass unit potentially differing from each other with a relative uncertainty of the order of 10. However, the draft of the ninth SI Brochure defines both the dalton (Da) and the unified atomic mass unit (u) as exactly 1/12 of the mass of
