Which statement about an element’s average atomic mass is correct? It is determined by counting the number of isotopes in a sample of the element. It is equal to one-twelfth the mass of the most common isotope. It is a weighted average, so common isotopes have a greater effect than uncommon ones. It is based on an isotope’s charge, so negatively charged isotopes have a greater effect than positive ones.
