Atomic Structure And Isotopes Flashcards
1
Q
Define Isotope
A
Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons and different masses
2
Q
Define atomic structure
A
The numbers of protons neutrons and electrons for atoms and ions given the atomic number mass number and any ionic charge
3
Q
Relative isotopic mass
A
Mass compared with 1/12th of carbon 12
4
Q
Relative Atomic Mass
A
Weighted mean mass of an element compared with 1/12th mass of an atom of carbon 12
5
Q
How do you find the relative atomic mass from mass spectrometry?
A
Sum of mass x abundance/ number of particles
sum of % x M/Z /100
