An atom of an element is 55.847 times as heavier as 1/12 mass of an atom of `C^12`. What is the atomic mass of the element in amu ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the atomic mass of the element in atomic mass units (amu), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of AMU**: - Atomic mass unit (amu) is defined as one twelfth (1/12) of the mass of a carbon-12 (C-12) atom. Therefore, 1 amu = 1/12 mass of C-12. 2. **Given Information**: ...
