The three stable isotopes of neon: `_(10)^(20)Ne,_(10)^(21)Ne" and "_(10)^(22)Ne` have respective abundances of `90.51%, 0.27%" and " 9.22%`. The atomic masses of the three isotopes are 19.99 u, 20.99 u and 21.99 u, respectively. Obtain the average atomic mass of neon.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Average atomic mass of neon.
`A_"neon"=(x_1A_1+x_2A_2+x_3A_3)/(x_1+x_2+x_3)`
`=(90.51xx19.99+0.27xx20.99+9.22xx21.99)/100`
`=(1809.29+5.67+202.75)/100`=20.184
