The scale would need 10 aluminum cubes on one side. Figure out how many paper clips would be needed on the other side to balance this. You have to use more than one aluminum cube because you need to have enough cubes so that you get a whole number mass. 10 cubes gives you a total mass of 27 g for the aluminum.
D. The atomic mass in amu is basically the number or nuclei since the mass of the electrons is negligible. For a given atom (element) the number of protons is fixed. Say the element has 10 protons. If the atomic weight is 14 atomic mass units (amu), you know that there are 4 neutrons, since both neutrons and protons are 1 amu each and there are 10 protons
