Relative atomic mass Atoms are too small to be weighed individually, even with the best balance! We can, however, compare the masses of different atoms.

Relative atomic mass We give the lightest atom (a hydrogen-1 atom) a mass of 1. All other atoms are compared so many times heavier than this. We call this relative atomic mass (RAM).

Relative atomic mass E.g. a helium atom has a RAM of 4. This means a helium atom is four times heavier than a hydrogen atom.

Relative atomic mass A magnesium atom has a RAM of 24. How many times heavier is a magnesium atom than a helium atom? SIX times heavier! (He has a RAM of 4, 24/4 = 6)

Relative atomic mass Some elements have RAM that are not whole numbers. This is because the elements exist as a number of isotopes – each of which has atoms of different mass. Tin has 10 different isotopes!

The RAM of chlorine The RAM of Cl is 35.5, how do we explain this? Cl exists as two isotopes, Cl-35 & Cl- 37. In any sample of Cl, 75% of the atoms are Cl- 35 and 25% are Cl-37.

The RAM of chlorine The average mass, taking into consideration the different number of atoms of the two isotopes, is: (75% x 35) + (25% x 37) = 35.5

Atomic Mass Silver is found to have two stable isotopes, one has an atomic mass of amu and the other weighs amu. The first isotope represents % of the mass of the element and the second represents %. What is the atomic mass of the element silver? The equation to use is %X + % Y = average And remember to turn your percents into fractions before multiplying. (0.5182) amu + (0.4818) amu =? amu amu =? amu !! Now look at the periodic table to verify the answer.

PRACTICE PROBLEMS 1 A sample of neon contains three isotopes, neon-20 (with an isotopic mass of amu), neon-21 ( amu) and neon-22 ( amu). The natural abundances of these isotopes are 90.92%, %, and 8.82 %. Calculate the atomic weight of neon. 2.There are only two naturally occuring isotopes of copper, 63 Cu and 65 Cu.
