What is the relative atomic mass of 'F'?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a 9
  2. b 11
  3. c 17
  4. d 19
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: d 19

F: 3.16 × 10⁻²³ ÷ 1.66 × 10⁻²⁴ ≈ 19.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a 9: 9 is fluorine's atomic number; its relative atomic mass is 19.
  • b 11: 11 does not fit; F gives 3.16 × 10⁻²³ ÷ 1.66 × 10⁻²⁴ ≈ 19.
  • c 17: 17 is chlorine's atomic number; fluorine's relative atomic mass is 19.
