Answer

238\text{238}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Identify the given information.

    The relative atomic mass of Nitrogen is given as 14.
    Nitrogen is stated to be 17 times lighter than Uranium. This means Uranium is 17 times heavier than Nitrogen.

  2. Set up the equation to find the relative atomic mass of Uranium.

    Since Uranium is 17 times heavier than Nitrogen, we multiply the relative atomic mass of Nitrogen by 17.

    Relative atomic mass of Uranium=Relative atomic mass of Nitrogen×17\text{Relative atomic mass of Uranium} = \text{Relative atomic mass of Nitrogen} \times 17
  3. Substitute the given value and calculate.

    Relative atomic mass of Uranium=14×17\text{Relative atomic mass of Uranium} = 14 \times 17 Relative atomic mass of Uranium=238\text{Relative atomic mass of Uranium} = 238

    The relative atomic mass of Uranium is 238\text{238}.
