The relative atomic mass of chlorine is not a whole number because
it is the weighted average mass of all its various isotopes
it is the average mass of all the isotopes of the element
the element has strong oxidizing ability
the atom contains a higher number of neutrons than protons
Correct answer is B
Chlorine is a mixture of two isotopes with different abundances. Its relative atomic mass is the mean or average of the isotopic masses.
1718W
1817W
3517W
3518W
Correct answer is C
The superscript is the atomic mass = 35
(The mass number also called atomic mass number or nucleon number, is the total number of protons and neutrons)
The subscript is the atomic or proton number = 17
The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons.
