Chapter 1, Problem 4P

Hydrogen possesses three isotopes, but tritium ( H 3 ) , which is radioactive, occurs as less than 1 in 10 17 atoms in a sample of natural hydrogen. If the value of A r for hydrogen is 1.008, estimate the percentage abundance of protium, H 1 1 , and deuterium, H 1 2 (or D) present in a sample of natural hydrogen. Point out any assumptions that you make. Explain why your answers are not the same as those quoted in Appendix 5.
