Answer:
It was done correctly, Your answer is completely correct.
Explanation:
The average atomic mass of element X is 14.007 u.
The average atomic mass of X is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.
We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its <em>relative importance</em> (i.e., its % abundance).
Thus,
0.996 36 × 14.003 u =13.952 03 u
0.003 64 × 15.000 u = <u>0.054 60 u</u>
__________TOTAL = 14.007 u

The more electronegative an atom is the more unwilling it is to lose its electrons in a compound. If you do try to take a very EN atom away from a compound you'll need to apply a lot of energy for that to happen. I can give an example of a single atom though
<span>Cl has 7 valence electron filled and every atom wants to be like nobles (noble gases), so it's not going to give an electron away b/c it's really close to being like a noble gas. Noble gases are the most stable atoms, which is why I say stability counts.</span>
The answer to the question is a.
The energy absorbed may be calculated using:
Q = mcΔT
Where Q is the energy absorbed, m is the mass of water, c is the specific heat capacity of the water and ΔT is the change is the temperature of the water. Substituting the values,
Q = (435)(4.18)(100-25)
Q = 136,372 J
The energy absorbed is 136.4 kJ
