Chapter 4, Problem 4.127CQ

Silicon has three naturally occurring isotopes: Si-28 that has a percent abundance of 92. 23% and a mass of 27. 977 amu, Si.29 that has a 4.66% abundance and a mass of 28. 976 amu, and Si-30 that has a percent abundance of 3. 09% and a mass of 29. 974 amu. Calculate the atomic mass for silicon using the weighted average mass method (4.5)

The relative ratio, or percent, of each isotope found in nature is the abundance number used to calculate the average mass. Here's the general equation for average atomic mass: (Abundance A)(Mass A) + (Abundance B)(Mass B) = Atomic Mass For example, here's how the average mass of of boron was calculated. Percent Boron-10 Percent Boron-11 10 + 11 =10.81 amu 100 100 (.20)10 + (.80)11 = 10.8 amu %D 3. Let's try out the atomic mass equation. Suppose you have a mixture of two nitrogen isotopes. For every 1 Nitrogen-15 isotopes, there are 3 Nitrogen-14 isotopes. Determine the abundance of each isotope in this mixture. Predict the average atomic mass of this mixture. Hint: This is NOT the mixture of nitrogen found in nature. You can check your answer by clicking "My Mixture" under isotope mixture. Next, create the mixture described in the problem. 14.50 amu 14.00 amu 14.25 amu 14.75 amu
