Average Atomic Mass Flashcards
1
Q
Isotopes
A
Atoms of the same element that differ in mass (different number of neutrons)
2
Q
Average Atomic Mass
A
The mass shown on the periodic table is weighted, average mass of all the isotopes present in a naturally occurring sample of that elements
3
Q
Average Atomic Mass Equation
A
AAM=E(Fractional Abundance X Isotopic Mass)
