Given that the abundacne of isotopes `.^(54)Fe`, `.^(56)Fe`, and `.^(57)Fe` is 5%, 90% and 5% respectively. The atomic mass of `Fe` is

A

55.85

B

55.95

C

55.75

D

56.05

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Atomic mass of iron
`=(54 xx 5 + 56 xx 90 + 57 xx 5)/100`
`=(270 + 5040 + 285)/100 = 55.95`
