The answer is 64.907 amu.
The atomic mass of an element is the average of the atomic masses of its isotopes. The relative abundance of isotopes must be taken into consideration, therefore:
atomic mass of copper = atomic mass of isotope 1 * abundance 1 + atomic mass of isotope 2 * abundance 2
We know:
atomic mass of copper = 63.546 amu
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: 62.939 amu
The abundance of isotope 1 is: 69.17% = 0.6917
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: x
The abundance of isotope 2: 100% - 69.17% = 30.83% = 0.3083
Thus:
63.546 amu = 62.939 amu * 0.6917 + x * 0.3083
63.546 <span>amu = 43.535 amu + 0.3083x
</span>⇒ 63.546 amu - 43.535 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ 20.011 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ x = 20.011 amu ÷ 0.3083 = 64.907 amu

Answer:
The concentration the student should write down in her lab is 2.2 mol/L
Explanation:
Atomic mass of the elements are:
Na: 22.989 u
S: 32.065 u
O: 15.999 u
Molar mass of sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3 = (2*22.989 + 2*32.065 + 3*15.999) g/mol = 158.105 g/mol.
Mass of Na2S2O3 taken = (19.440 - 2.2) g = 17.240 g.
For mole(s) of Na2S2O3 = (mass taken)/(molar mass)
= (17.240 g)/(158.105 g/mol) = 0.1090 mole.
Volume of the solution = 50.29 mL = (50.29 mL)*(1 L)/(1000 mL)
= 0.05029 L.
To find the molar concentration of the sodium thiosulfate solution prepared we use the formula:
= (moles of sodium thiosulfate)/(volume of solution in L)
= (0.1090 mole)/(0.05029 L)
= 2.1674 mol/L
