Answer is: silicon isotope with mass number 28 has highest relative abundance, this isotope is the most common of these three isotopes.

Ar₁(Si) = 28; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁸Si.  

Ar₂(Si) =29; the average atomic mass of isotope ²⁹Si.  

Ar₃(Si) =30; the average atomic mass of isotope ³⁰Si.  

Silicon (Si) is composed of three stable isotopes, ₂₈Si (92.23%), ₂₉Si (4.67%) and ₃₀Si (3.10%).

ω₁(Si) = 92.23%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁸Si.  

ω₂(Si) = 4.67%; mass percentage of isotope ²⁹Si.

ω₃(Si) = 3.10%; mass percentage of isotope ³⁰Si.

Ar(Si) = 28.086 amu; average atomic mass of silicon.  

Ar(Si) = Ar₁(Si) · ω₁(B) + Ar₂(Si) · ω₂(Si)  + Ar₃(Si) · ω₃(Si).  

28,086 = 28 · 0.9223 + 29 · 0.0467 + 30 · 0.031.

What is wave particle duality​
yKpoI14uk [10]
Wave particle duality is the concept in quantum mechanics that every particle or quantum entity may be described as either a particle or a wave. It expresses the inability of the classical concepts "particle" or "wave" to fully describe the behaviour of quantum-scale objects.

Is apple juice a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture
Solnce55 [7]

If you mean the industrialized apple juice then yes. Even though there are several different compounds and some of them aren't actually dissolved in the liquid, since you can't actually distinguish between them using only your eyes and they do no separate naturally it is actually a homogeneous mixture.
