Mass spectrum of a naturally occurring sample of element \(\text{X}\).
Mass spectrum of a naturally occurring sample of element \(\text{X}\).
A pure sample of a naturally occurring element, \(\text{X}\), is analyzed using mass spectrometry. The resulting mass spectrum is shown below, displaying three distinct peaks corresponding to singly charged \(\text{X}^+\) ions. Based on the data in the mass spectrum, what is the average atomic mass of element \(\text{X}\)?
