Answer:

Wt. Avg. Atomic Weight => 63.35457 amu

Explanation:

Given              Isotopic             %Abundance     fractional          Wt Avg

                  At. Mass (amu)                                  abundance      contribution                    

Cu-63              62.93                      69.09              0.6909            43.4783

Cu-65              64.9278                  20.0668        0.200668        20.0668

Wt Average of all isotopes = ∑Wt Avg Contributions

=  43.4783 amu + 20.0668 amu = 63.35457 amu
