Isotopes Are…. • Atoms w/ same # p+but different # no different mass # s • chemically alike- react the same way • b/c identical # of p+ & e- • Atomic Mass rounds to most abundant isotope
Atomic Mass Formula Mass (amu) x Abundance (%) = Relative Mass Then add up all the relative masses or ( Mass* % Abundance) + (Mass * %Abundance)+…
Example Chromium exists in 4 isotopic forms with the following abundances: Cr-50= 4.31%; Cr-52= 83.76%; Cr-53=9.55%; Cr-54=2.38% Calculate the average atomic mass of chromium.
