Answer:
Average Atomic Mass = 63.5460 amu
Explanation:
Data Given:
Atomic Mass of ⁶³X = 62.9296 amu
Natural Abundance of ⁶³X = 69.15 %
Atomic Mass of ⁶⁵X = 64.9278 amu
Natural Abundance of ⁶⁵X = 30.85 %
Formula Used:
Average Atomic Mass = [(Atomic Mass of ⁶³X × Natural Abundance of ⁶³X) + (Atomic Mass of ⁶⁵X × Natural Abundance of ⁶⁵X)] ÷ 100
Putting values,
Average Atomic Mass = [(62.9296 × 69.15) + (64.9278 × 30.85)] ÷ 100
Average Atomic Mass = [(4351.5818) + (2003.0226)] ÷ 100
Average Atomic Mass = 6354.6044 ÷ 100
Average Atomic Mass = 63.5460 amu
