Calculate the average atomic mass of caarbon given the following information: Carbon-12 12.000 amu 98.89% Carbon-12 13.003 amu 1.11%

12.01

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Abundance of C-12  = 98.89%

mass of isotope  = 12amu

Abundance of C - 12  = 1.11%

mass of isotope  = 13.003

Unknown:

Average atomic mass of carbon  = ?

Solution:

The average atomic mass ;

R.A.M  = (mass of isotope x abundance of isotope)-12 + (mass of isotope x abundance of isotope)- 13

Insert the parameters and solve;

R.A.M  =( 12  x 98.89%)  + (1.11% x 13.003)

 R.A.M = 11.87 + 0.14 = 12.01

d is the correct answer

i'm on my way to history not a mistory.
