I'm trying to use the ChemicalData and ElementData commands in mathematica and I'm getting the right numbers but no units show up with the output. Is there a way to turn them on or something like that? Thanks!

For what property you do not get units? In[97]:= ElementData["Silicon", "AtomicMass"] Out[97]= Quantity[28.0855, "AtomicMassUnit"] In[98]:= ElementData["Silicon", "AtomicMass", "Units"] Out[98]= "AtomicMassUnit" In[103]:= ChemicalData["Silicon", "MolarMass"] Out[103]= Quantity[28.0855, ("Grams")/("Moles")] In[104]:= ChemicalData["Silicon", "MolarMass", "Units"] Out[104]= "GramsPerMole"

In[97]:= ElementData["Silicon", "AtomicMass"]
Out[97]= Quantity[28.0855, "AtomicMassUnit"]

In[98]:= ElementData["Silicon", "AtomicMass", "Units"]
Out[98]= "AtomicMassUnit"

In[103]:= ChemicalData["Silicon", "MolarMass"]
Out[103]= Quantity[28.0855, ("Grams")/("Moles")]

In[104]:= ChemicalData["Silicon", "MolarMass", "Units"]
Out[104]= "GramsPerMole"
