sorry i just wasnt born for chemistry but i know this is easy:

4.to two decimal places, what is the relative atomic mass and the molar mass of the lement potassium, K?

Check the periodic table.

In this case both are the same, as K can present itself both as a pure element and an ion. But since electrons don't have enough mass, if you take one off from the original K°, the atomic mass won't change in the first two decimal places.

So, the answer for both is 39.09>> 39.10 g/mol or amu.

Hi! Are you a chemistry student? Anyhow.

Name: Potassium
Symbol: K
Atomic Number: 19
Atomic Mass: 39.0983 amu
Melting Point: 63.65 °C (336.8 K, 146.57 °F)
Boiling Point: 774.0 °C (1047.15 K, 1425.2 °F)
Number of Protons/Electrons: 19
Number of Neutrons: 20
Classification: Alkali Metal
Crystal Structure: Cubic
Density @ 293 K: 0.862 g/cm3
Color: silvery

Hope the answer to the question.

Take care Bye.

39.10 : atomic mass
39.10:molar mass of K

well, it's written on every periodic table.

it's 39.10 for both, already corrected for natural isotopic distribution.
