Solution
The correct option is A A and R are correct, R explains the A. Relative atomic mass of an element is the ratio between the average mass of its isotopes to
112th part of the mass of a carbon-12 atom. It is denoted as Ar. It is otherwise called “Standard Atomic Weight”.
If the relative atomic mass of Aluminium is 27 it means that aluminium is 27 times heavier than 1/12th of the mass of the C – 12 atom.,
