What is the main focus of the video tutorial by Kat?

• Studying chemical bonding

• Understanding chemical reactions

• Exploring the periodic table

• Learning about isotopic abundance and average atomic mass

Which isotopes of silicon are used in the example to calculate average atomic mass?

• Si 26, Si 27, Si 28

• Si 29, Si 30, Si 31

• Si 27, Si 28, Si 29

• Si 28, Si 29, Si 30

What is the calculated average atomic mass of silicon in the example?

• 27.5 u

• 30.0 u

• 29.0 u

• 28.1 u

Why is it important to consider significant figures in the calculation of average atomic mass?

• To match the number of isotopes

• To make the calculation easier

• To ensure the result is as precise as possible

• To avoid using decimals
