Element does not exist so I have to ignore that part. Atomic mass as it appears on the Periodic Table is an average mass of gram (weight) per mole of atom (see avagadros number). Furthermore, it is average in the sense that it is weighted based on the percentage of a specific isotope existing (some contain more neutrons than others) with the actual weight of each isotope

The average atomic mass of an element is the average of the atomic masses of its isotopes (that is a weighted average). You have to take into account the abundance of each isotope when they do your averaging.

What is atomic mass an average of?

"Atomic Mass" is not an average, it is tje total mass of all the electrons, protons and neutrons in an atom of an element. AVERAGE Atomic Mass is the AVERAGE of the Atomic Masses of all of the Isotopes of an element according to their natural proportions.


Why is there an average atomic mass?

There is an average atomic mass because all atoms of the same element do not have the same amount of neutrons (isotopes), therefore variations in atomic mass exist. The average atomic mass of an element is the estimated average of all the atoms of the same element, given the average of different isotopes in a scientific sample.


What is the weighted average of the atomic masses of an element's naturally occurring isotopes is called the?

The atomic weight that is listed on the periodic table for each element is the weighted average of the atomic masses of an element's naturally occurring isotopes. So you are describing atomic weight as it is used on the periodic table.
