Problem

Calculate the relative atomic masses of the following elements, giving your answer to two decimal places. (1) carbon: % abundance: 12C=98.93^{12}\text{C} = 98.93 , 13C=1.07^{13}\text{C} = 1.07 (2) argon: % abundance: 36Ar=0.3365^{36}\text{Ar} = 0.3365 , 38Ar=0.0632^{38}\text{Ar} = 0.0632 , 40Ar=99.6003^{40}\text{Ar} = 99.6003
