Isotopes

  • Different forms of the same element, which have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons

  • so isotopes have the same atomic number, but different mass numbers

2

Relative Atomic Mass (Ar)

the average mass of one atom of the element, compared to 1/12 of the mass of one atom of carbon-12

New cards
3

Formula to calculate the Ar of an element from its isotopic abundance

Ar = sum of (isotopic abundance x isotope mass number)/ sum of abundances of all the isotopes x 100
