• D. 18.00

Answer: (B)

Verified step by step guidance

1. Understand that the molar mass of an element is the mass of one mole of its atoms, usually expressed in grams per mole (g/mol).
2. Locate neon (Ne) on the periodic table to find its atomic mass, which represents the average mass of one atom of neon in atomic mass units (amu).
3. Recognize that the atomic mass in amu is numerically equal to the molar mass in g/mol for an element.
4. Use the atomic mass value of neon from the periodic table as the molar mass, ensuring to note the value with appropriate precision.
5. Round the molar mass value to two decimal places as requested to obtain the final answer.
