Answer:
The answer to your question is 24.325
Explanation:
Data
Magnesium-24 Abundance = 78.70%
Magnesium-25 Abundance = 10.13%
Magnesium-26 Abundance = 11.17%
Process
1.- Convert the abundance to decimals
Magnesium-24 Abundance = 78.70/100 = 0.787
Magnesium-25 Abundance = 10.13/100 = 0.1013
Magnesium-26 Abundance = 11.17/100 = 0.1117
2.- Write an equation
Average atomic mass = (Atomic mass-1 x Abundance 1) + (Atomic mass 2 x
Abundance-2) + (Atomic mass 3 x Abundance 3)
3.- Substitution
Average atomic mass = (24 x 0.787) + (25 x 0.1013) + (26 x 0.1117)
4.- Simplification
Average atomic mass = 18.888 + 2.533 + 2.904
5.- Result
Average atomic mass = 24.325
Answer:
10.335
Explanation:
An object was carefully weighed on three different balances
Each of these balances were zeroed before weighing
The masses that were weighed are as follows
10.35 g , 10.355 g, 10.30 g
Therefore the average value of these measurements can be calculated as follows
The total number of mass is 3
= 10.30 + 10.355 + 10.30/3
= 31,005/3
= 10.335
Hence the average value of these measurements is 10.335
4=population, 5 and 6 are ecosystem
