2. Suppose an element consisted of three naturally occurring isotopes. The reported average mass for the element was 75.42 amu. The following information is known: isotope I has a mass of 80.45 and makes up 2.4% of the element's atoms. Isotope II has a mass of 72.22 and makes up 30.0% of the element's atoms. What would you estimate as the mass of isotope III? What instrument is used to determine the mass and natural abundance? Provide a likely sketch of the results from this instrument.
