Concept introduction:
An atom is made of particles called electrons, protons and neutrons. Atoms of each element are different. Isotopes are atoms of same element with different number of neutrons.
Explanation of Solution
Average atomic mass - It is the weighted average mass of an element with respect to all its existing isotopes and their relative abundance. It is calculated by taking average of masses of isotopes of an element in a sample. Since each isotope has different number of neutrons, it has different atomic masses. Average atomic mass is often expressed in decimal number. Masses and
Mass of an atom - The mass of an atom is the mass of a single atom for a single
Example:
Most of the carbon atoms found in nature has a mass of 12 amu. For every 100 carbon atoms, there is a probability of finding one carbon atom with atomic mass of 13 amu and very rarely one carbon atom of mass 14 amu. All these three carbon atoms are isotopes of carbon. So the average atomic mass of carbon is calculated as 12.01 taking into consideration masses of all three isotopes and their percentage abundance.
Hence, masses of isotopes of carbon atom are 12 amu, 13 amu and 14 amu.
Averageatomic mass of carbon is 12.01amu.
Average atomic mass is the average of the masses of the isotopes of an element. Mass of an atom is the sum of number of protons and neutrons in an atom.
