Answer: The first step is testing their theory!
Explanation: Scientists will have to set up an experiment to scientifically prove their statement/hypothesis:)
Answer:
The answer to your question is 203.8 g
Explanation:
Data
Average atomic mass = ?
Centium-200
Centium-203
Centium-209
Equal amounts
Process
1.- Determine the abundance of each isotope.
If they are in equal amounts in nature, just divide 100 by 3
100/3 = 33.33 % or 0.333
2.- Determine the Average atomic mass
Average atomic mass = Atomic mass 1 x abundance + Atomic mass 2 x
abundance + Atomic mass 3 x abundance
- Substitution
Average atomic mass = 200 x 0.333 + 203 x 0.333 + 209 x 0.333
- Simplification
Average atomic mass = 66.6 + 67.6 + 69.6
Result
Average atomic mass = 203.8 g
The atomic symbol for an isotope with 4 protons and 5 neutrons is Beryllium ( Be)................
