Suppose that the atomic mass unit (amu) had been defined as one-twentieth of the average mass of an atom of fluorine instead of one-twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12. What would the average atomic mass of magnesium be on this new scale? 2.56×101 You are correct. Your receipt no. is 153-7616 Help: Receipt Previous Tries What would the value of Avogadro's number be on this new scale?

OpenStudy (abmon98):

Given new atomic mass = 1/20 of the average mass of an atom of fluorine Atomic mass of fluorine=20 nmu Now atomic mass of Mg = [amu (Mg)/ amu(F)] x nmu(F) (24/19)*20=25.26 19/20*6.02*10^23
