An element X has two isotopes, 2010X and 2010X,
present in the ratio 1:3. The relative atomic mass of X would be?
  • A.
    20.5
  • B.
    21.0
  • C.
    21.5
  • D.
    22.0
  • E.
    22.5
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

The relative atomic mass will be (20 + 3 + 22)/(4)
(86)/(4) = (43)/(2) = 21.5
