An element exist in nature in two isotopic forms: `X^(30)(90%) and X^(32)(10%)`. What is the average atomic mass of element?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the average atomic mass of the element with isotopes \(X^{30}\) and \(X^{32}\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the isotopes and their abundances We have two isotopes of the element: - Isotope 1: \(X^{30}\) with an abundance of 90% - Isotope 2: \(X^{32}\) with an abundance of 10% ### Step 2: Write the formula for average atomic mass ...
