Relative Isotopic mass definition

The mass of an atom of an isotope compared with 1/12th the mass of an atom of carbon-12

2
New cards

Formula for relative atomic mass (RAM)

(isotopic mass x percentage abundance) / 100

3
New cards

Relative atomic mass (Ar) definition

Weighted mean mass of an atom of an element compared with 1/12th of an atom of carbon-12

Is th average mass of all isotopes

4
New cards

Formula for working out the Relative atomic mass from a mass spectrometry graph

(%abundance × m/z)+ ( %abundance × m/z)/100

5
New cards

Definition of isotope

Atoms of the same element with a different no of neutrons so different masses,

but the same no of protons
