Question

13. What is the atomic mass of an atom if its mass is approximately equal to the following? 1 a. that of carbon-12 b. 4.5 times as much as carbon-12

Answer 1

The atomic mass of an atom if its mass is approximately equal to carbon-12 will be 12 and in case of 4.5 times carbon-12 will be 54

Atomic mass of an element is the average mass of the atoms of an element which are measured in atomic mass unit. Or we can also say that the atomic mass is actually the weighted mass is a weighted average of all of the isotopes of elements, in which the mass of each element is multiplied by the abundance of that particular isotope.

So the atomic mass of an atom if the mass is approximately equal to carbon-12 then the mass of the element will be equal to 12 as the atomic mass of carbon-12  is 12.

where as the atomic mass of an atom if its mass is approximately equal to 4.5 times as much as carbon-12 will be ⇒ 4.5×12= 54
