Answer:
Converting the percent abundance into decimal form, we get:
Si-28: 92.21% = 92.21/100 = 0.9221
Si-29: 4.70% = 4.70/100 = 0.0470
Si-30: 3.09% = 3.09/100 = 0.0309
Average atomic mass of silicon is:
(27.98) x (0.9221) + (28.98) x (0.0470) + (29.97) x (0.0309)
= 25.800 + 1.362 + 0.926
= 28.08 amu
