An element X has three naturally occurring isotopes: X-36, X-38, and X-40. The atomic mass of X-36 is 35.968 amu and the relative abundance is 0.34 %. The atomic mass of X-38 is 37.963 amu and the relative abundance is .063 %.Given that the weighted atomic mass of the element X is 39.948 amu, calculate the mass contribution due to the isotope X-40 and identify the element.
