Question

Relative atomic mass of a compound can be calculated by the relative atomic mass of individual atoms

  1. True
  2. False

hintHint:

Relative atomic mass of an element is defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of the element in a given sample to one twelfth the mass of one atom of carbon-12 isotope.

The correct answer is 'True'.


    Relative atomic mass, also known by the deprecated synonym atomic weight, is a dimensionless physical quantity defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element in a given sample to the atomic mass constant. The atomic mass constant is defined as being 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
    Relative atomic mass of a compound can be calculated by the relative atomic mass of individual atoms.
