Question

what is the mass of chlorine. With full explanation​

Answer 1

Explanation:

There are two stable isotopes, 35Cl (75.77%) and 37Cl (24.23%), giving chlorine a standard atomic weight of 35.45. The longest-lived radioactive isotope is 36Cl, which has a half-life of 301,000 years.

Answer 2

Answer:

The reason for the atomic mass of chlorine taken as 35.5u and not as 35u because of the presence of isotopes. Isotopes are defined as variants of a particular element where these variants will have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons in the atom.
