Average Atomic Mass date
Average atomic mass A WEIGHTED average dependent on the percent abundance of each isotope. If all isotopes were in a bag, how frequently would you pull out each separate isotope. Measured in amu’s
Atomic Mass Unit An amu is the mass of a single proton. 1 amu = 1.67*10-24 g
Determining Average Mass Multiply Mass number by Percent abundance. Add the answers. Answer should be close to most abundant isotope.
Example Cesium is 75% 133Cs, 20% 132Cs, 5% 134Cs. What is the average atomic mass? 133*.75 132*.20 134*.05 132.85 amu Closest to the most abundant isotope
Example Chromium has four istopes. 4.35% 50Cr, 83.79% 52Cr, 9.5% 53Cr, 2.36% 54Cr. What is the average atomic mass of Cr? 50*.0435 52*.8379 53*.095 54*.0236 52.0552 amu
Determining % abundance Create an equation equaling average atomic mass Mass1 * %X + Mass2 * %Y = average atomic mass Create an equation equaling 100% X + Y = 1 Use substitution to solve for x. Mass1 * %X + Mass2 * %(1-X) = average atomic mass
Let one isotope be X and the other 1-X 10.013X + 11.009(1-x) = 10.812 The average atomic weight of boron is 10.812amu. Boron has two isotopes: boron-10 with a mass of 10.013 and boron-11 with a mass of 11.009. What are the % abundances of each isotope? Let one isotope be X and the other 1-X 10.013X + 11.009(1-x) = 10.812 10.013X + 11.009 – 11.009X = 10.812 0.197 = 0.996X 0.1978 = X Boron-10 is 19.78% abundant Boron-11 is 80.22% abundant
What are the % abundances of the two isotopes of rubidium What are the % abundances of the two isotopes of rubidium? Average atomic mass 85.4678 amu Rb-85, 84.9918 amu Rb-87, 86.9092 amu Let X be for Rb-85 and 1-X for Rb-87 84.9918X + 86.9092(1-X) = 85.4678 84.9918X + 86.9092 – 86.9092X = 85.4678 1.4414 = 1.9174X 0.7517 = X Rb-85 is 75.17% abundant Rb-87 is 24.83% abundant
