isotope definition
Atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons,
What is a weighted average and how do you find it
By calculating an average of an element’s atomic masses, weighted by the natural abundance of each isotope
total # of x divided by total # multiplied by atomic mass
LOCOM definition
Law of conversion of mass
(atoms, matter)
chemistry highway
grams of x
->divide by molar mass->
moles
->multiply by 6.022x10^23->
of compounds (or atoms) in x
what are molar ratios
a conversion factor that relates the amounts in moles of any two substances in a chemical reaction
how to find molar ratios
put the moles of one reactant over the moles of the other reactant
identity of an isotope
the identity of the isotope is given by the number of protons and neutrons
