A mystery element occurs in nature as three isotopes. Isotope A has a mass of 15.994915 amu and its abundance is 99.762%; Isotope B has a mass of 16.999132 amu
and its abundance is 0.0380%; Isotope C has a mass of 17.999160 amu and its
abundance is 0.2000%. From this data, calculate the atomic mass of the element and
show all work. Lastly, identify the element.

One way in which the useful metal copper is produced is by dissolving the mineral azurite, which contains copper(ii) carbonate, in concentrated sulfuric acid. the sulfuric acid reacts with the copper(ii) carbonate to produce a blue solution of copper(ii) sulfate. scrap iron is then added to this solution, and pure copper metal precipitates out because of the following chemical reaction: (s) (aq) (s) (aq) suppose an industrial quality-control chemist analyzes a sample from a copper processing plant in the following way. he adds powdered iron to a copper(ii) sulfate sample from the plant until no more copper will precipitate. he then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate, and finds that it has a mass of .
