(3) Go to ptable.com and see the listed atomic mass of Oganesson. Determine the percent error based on the knowledge that the given element, Oganesson, would have a predicted mass of 236 g/mol. Do this in Excel, and recall there is a function for absolute value, =ABS( ).

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that, the actual atomic mass of Oganesson is MA = 294 g/mol.

The predicted atomic mass of Oganesson is Mp = 236 g/mol.

We have to calculate the percent of error of determining the atomic mass of Oganesson.

Formula: The formula of the percent of error is = Mp - MAMA×100%.
