- Copper atoms. (a) What is the average mass of one copper atom? (b) Students in a college computer science class once sued the college because they were asked to calculate the cost of one atom and could not do it. But you are in a chemistry course, and you can do this. (See E. Felsenthal, Wall Street Journal, May 9, 1995.)

The average atomic mass of europium is 151.96 amu. a. Calculate the relative abundance of the two europium isotopes. b. Graph each fractional abundance value as a y-axis value in association with its corresponding mass value on the x-axis. Starting from each x-axis value, where y = 0, draw a vertical line up to the fractional abundance value.
