The assertion and the reason are true and the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
- Atomic mass is defined as the ratio of an atom's average mass to one-twelfth of the relative mass of the C-12 atom.
- Because atomic mass is a ratio, it lacks units but is nevertheless stated in amu. Thus, the assertion is correct.
- One-twelfth of the relative mass of the C-12 atom is one, according to the mathematical equation.
- Thus, atomic mass is equal to the average mass of an atom after accounting for the relative abundance of all of its isotopes. As a result, the reasoning is likewise true.
- As a consequence, we may infer that both the statement and the reason are valid and that the reason is not the proper explanation for the assertion.
