The atomic masses of 20Ne (90.48 percent), 21Ne (0.27 percent), and 22Ne (9.25 percent) are 19.9924356, 20.9938428, and 21.9913831 amu, respectively. Calculate the average atomic mass of neon. The percentages in parentheses denote the relative abundance

20.180042 amu

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Isotope A (20Ne)

Mass of A = 19.9924356 amu

Abundance (A%) = 90.48%

Isotope B (21Ne):

Mass of B = 20.9938428 amu

Abundance (B%) = 0.27%

Isotope C (22Ne):

Mass of C = 21.9913831 amu

Abundance (C%) = 9.25%

Average atomic mass of Neon =.?

The average atomic mass of Neon can be obtained as follow:

Average atomic mass = [(mass of A × A%)/100] + [(mass of B × B%)/100] + [(mass of C × C%)/100]

= [(19.9924356 × 90.48)/100] + [(20.9938428 × 0.27) /100] + [(21.9913831 × 9.25) /100]

= 18.0891557 + 0.05668338 + 2.03420294

= 20.180042 amu

Therefore, the average atomic mass of Neon is 20.180042 amu

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6
