(D) The weighted average atomic mass is calculated as:$	ext{Average atomic mass} = (\% 	ext{ abundance of isotope } 1 	imes 	ext{mass of isotope } 1) + (\% 	ext{ abundance of isotope } 2 	imes 	ext{mass of isotope } 2) + (\% 	ext{ abundance of isotope } 3 	imes 	ext{mass of isotope } 3)$$	ext{Average atomic mass} = (0.90 	imes 200) + (0.08 	imes 199) + (0.02 	imes 202)$$	ext{Average atomic mass} = 180.00 + 15.92 + 4.04 = 199.96 \ amu$Rounding to the nearest whole number,the value is $200 \ amu$.
