Answer:

178.463 amu

Explanation:

Average atomic weight of Hafnium is calculated as follows;

[(0.0016 × 173.940) + (0.0526 × 175.941) + (0.186 × 176.943) + (0.2728 × 177.944) + (0.1362 × 178.946) + (0.3508 × 179.947)] =0.278 + 9.234 + 32.911 + 48.543 + 24.372 + 63.125 = 178.463 amu

Therefore, average atomic weight of Hafnium is 178.463 amu
