12. Based on the data this group gathered, the most appropriate hypothesis would be A. “If an egg is placed in corn syrup, then it will gain weight.”
B. “If an egg is placed in vinegar overnight, then its shell will dissolve.”
C. “If three eggs are each placed in three different solutions, then the egg in distilled water will lose weight.”

Explanation:

the relative atomic mass of an element is the mass of one atom of that element, relative to 1/12th of the mass of a  1212c atom. to convert to an absolute mass in kg, it is necessary to multiply by  1.661×10−271.661×10−27.

the relative atomic mass is roughly equal to the number of neutrons, plus the number of protons, in the nucleus of the atom.

for elements with more than one stable isotope (different types of nucleus with different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons), the quoted mass is usually the average mass, weighted by the relative abundance of the different isotopes.
