Answer:

14.01 amu

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Isotope     Atomic mass (am)    Abundance (ab)

 ¹⁴N           14.00307 amu          99.64% (0.9964)

 ¹⁵N           15.0001 amu             0.36% (0.0036)

Step 2: Calculate the average atomic mass (aam) of nitrogen

We will use the following expression.

aam = ∑ am × ab

aam = 14.00307 amu × 0.9964 + 15.0001 amu × 0.0036 = 14.01 amu
