Isotopes are the atoms of same element, they have same atomic number but different mass numbers. Isotopes have different number of neutrons in their nucleus . If an element exists in two isotopes having atomic masses 'a' and 'b' in the ratio m:n, then average atomic mass will be (mxxa+nxxb)/(m+n) Different isotopes of same element have same position in the periodic table. the elemens which have single isotope are called monoisotropic elements. Greater is the percentage composition of an isotope, more will be its abundance in nature. Which of the following isotopes is/are used to decide the scale of atomic mass?

A nucleus of atomic mass A and atomic number Z emits beta- particle. The atomic mass and atomic number of the resulting nucleus are

    (A) Mass spectrometer is used for determination of atomic mass of isotopes. (R) Isotopes are the atoms of same element having same atomic number but different mass numbers.

    The modern atomic mass scale is based on :-

    When elements are arranged in the order of increasing atomic masses, the atomic mass of the middle element is roughly the average of the atomic masses of the other two elements' ------ this law is known as:

    Assertion: S.I. unit of atomic mass and molecular mass is kilograms. Reason : Atomic mass is equal to the mass of 6.023xx 10^(24) atoms.
