If the average atomic mass of carbon is calculated using the isotopes \( ^{12}\text{C} \) (98.892%, 12 u), \( ^{13}\text{C} \) (1.108%, 13.00335 u), and \( ^{14}\text{C} \) (\( 2 \times 10^{-10}\%, 14.00317 \text{ u} \)), what is the resulting average atomic mass of carbon?

  1. A
    \( 13.002 \text{ u} \)
  2. B
    \( 12.115 \text{ u} \)
  3. C
    \( 11.985 \text{ u} \)
  4. D
    \( 12.011 \text{ u} \)
View Answer & Solution

Correct answer · Option D

\( 12.011 \text{ u} \)

Explanation

Average atomic mass = \( \sum (\text{fractional abundance} \times \text{isotopic mass}) = 12.011 \text{ u} \).
