The most abundant carbon isotope is carbon-12.
The relative atomic mass of carbon is 12.011, which is extremely close to 12.0. This means that the masses C-13, and C-14 are practically negligible when contributing to the relative atomic mass of carbon.
the C-12 isotope makes up 98.9% of carbon atoms, C-13 makes up 1.1% of carbon atoms, and C-14 makes up just a trace of carbon atoms as they are found in nature.
Answer:
Average atomic mass of carbon = 12.01 amu.
Explanation:
Given data:
Abundance of C¹² = 98.89%
Abundance of C¹³ = 1.11%
Atomic mass of C¹² = 12.000 amu
Atomic mass of C¹³ = 13.003 amu
Average atomic mass = ?
Solution:
Average atomic mass of carbon = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100
Average atomic mass of carbon = (12.000×98.89)+(13.003×1.11) /100
Average atomic mass of carbon= 1186.68 + 14.43333 / 100
Average atomic mass of carbon = 1201.11333 / 100
Average atomic mass of carbon = 12.01 amu.

Atomic masses :
N- 14
H- 1
S- 32
O- 16
Therefore M= 14×2 + 1×8 + 32 + 16×4
= 132
m= nM
= 20×132
= 2640g
Solute is something that is being dissolved { ex : sugar , salt}
Solvent is something that has ability to dissolve things { ex : water}
False because the solvent is present in larger amounts...
