Q

Meaning of isotopes

A

Atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons

17
Q

Meaning of relative atomic mass

A

The average mass of all the isotopes of an element taking into account the abundance of each isotope measured relative to 1/12 of the mass of an atom of ⬆️12 ⬇️6 C
