Answer:
The average atomic mass of an element is the sum of the masses of its isotopes, each multiplied by its natural abundance (the decimal associated with percent of atoms of that element that are of a given isotopе). An element does not have an absolute atomic mass.

Answer:
The chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules due to its tetravalent nature. It has four valence electrons in which it shares with other elements in order to form an octet configuration.
Carbon atoms are also capable of forming double and triple bonds with other atoms. These properties help determine the functional group present and gives us a knowledge of the chemical features such as polarity, melting and boiling present in the compound.
Branched chain alkanes
The alkanes don't contain a functional group and so the branches are numbered from the end that gives the lowest set of position numbers for the branches.
Use the above rules to see how the names of the alkanes below are built up.
The structure of 2-methylbutane is a butane molecule (C4H10) but with a methyl group (CH3) replacing a hydrogen on the second carbon atom in the chain. The structure of 3-methylpentane could be drawn as butane with an ethyl group (C2H5) replacing a hydrogen on the second carbon. Note that this is not 2-ethylbutane. The structure of 2,2-dimethylbutane is butane with two methyl groups replacing the two hydrogens on the second carbon.
