B Average Atomic Mass A weighted average of an element’s isotopes. Places an emphasis on isotopes with a larger abundance. 5 B 10.812 Boron
Calculating Average Atomic Mass A.A.M.=(Mass 1*Percent1)+(Mass 2*Percent2)+ …
Calculating Average Atomic Mass A.A.M.=(Mass 1*Percent1)+(Mass 2*Percent2)+ … Ex: There are two natural occurring isotopes of the element chlorine. Chlorine-35 is 75.8% abundant, while chlorine-37 is 24.2% abundant. Calculate their average atomic mass.
Calculating Average Atomic Mass A.A.M.=(Mass 1*Percent1)+(Mass 2*Percent2)+ … Ex: Calculate the average atomic mass of zirconium given the following information: Isotope Abundance Zirconium-90 51.5% Zirconium-91 11.2% Zirconium-92 17.2% Zirconium-94 17.4% Zirconium-96 2.8%
Calculating Average Atomic Mass A.A.M.=(Mass 1*Percent1)+(Mass 2*Percent2)+ … Ex: Use the data from the mass spectrum graph to determine the element’s average atomic mass. Then, identify the element.
