Solution
The correct option is A 39 In a Döbereiner's triad, the atomic mass of the middle element is roughly the average of the atomic masses of the other two elements.
Calculation:
Atomic mass of Li = 7 amu
Atomic mass of Na = 23 amu
Let the atomic mass of the element X be Z.
Since Li, Na, and X form a Dobereiner's triad,
