The average atomic mass of carbon is 12.01 amu. Based on the atomic
masses of the two isotopes of carbon, how do the relative abundances of the
isotopes compare?
Isotope
Atomic mass (amu)
C-12
12.000
C-13
13.003
OA. There is a slightly larger percentage of C-12 than C-13.
OB. There is a very large percentage of C-12.
OC. There is a very small percentage of C-12.
OD. They are about the same.

Respuesta :

Answer: There is a very large percentage of C-12.

Explanation:

The atomic mass is must closer to that of C-12 than of C-13, meaning that there is a much larger percentage of C-12.
