    💁‍♀️ HI I'M MELISSA MARIBEL
    I help students pass Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. I used to struggle with this subject, so when I finally graduated with a bachelor's degree in Chemistry, I became a tutor so that you wouldn't have to struggle like I did. I know that with the right help, YOU CAN LEARN ANYTHING!

I don't understand why you round some of the answers within the average atomic mass formula answers? Is it because of the given Sig Figs? some of them in the first example had more Sig Figs in given do you just do the least amount?
