Answer:

39.0229 amu

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to given information, the idea here is to multiply the percent abundance by the mass number of each isotope and then add them all together as shown below:


=0.0967*38+0.7868*39+0.1134*40+0.0031*41\\\\=3.6746+30.6852+4.536+0.1271\\\\=39.0229amu

Regards!
