Answer:

The mass of the element is 28.085 amu

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Masses of isotopes:

27.977 amu ⇒

28.976 amu ⇒ 4.68%

29.973 amu ⇒  3.09%

Step 2: Calculate the abundance of the other isotope

100% - 4.68% - 3.09 % = 92.23 %

Step 3: calculate the mass othe element

0.9223 * 27.977 + 0.0468 * 28.976 + 0.0309*29.973 = total mass of the element

Total mass of the element = 28.085 amuj

The mass of the element is 28.085 amu
