B. 3.33
C. 20.445
D. 21.168

A. 47.81
B. 3.33
C. 20.445
D. 21.168
Is it not the only one that is remotely close to
#M_I("Ti"-47) ~~ "47 amu"#
#M_I("Ti"-48) ~~ "48 amu"#
#M_I("Ti"-50) ~~ "50 amu"#
Thus, the average relative atomic mass MUST WITHOUT A DOUBT be between 47 and 50.
#"47 g/mol" cdot 0.435 + "48 g/mol" cdot 0.441 + "50 g/mol" cdot 0.124#
#=# #ulcolor(blue)"47.813 g/mol"#
