To solve the problem of finding the percentage abundance of the two isotopes of nitrogen with atomic masses 14 and 15, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define Variables:** Let the percentage abundance of the isotope with atomic mass 14 be \( x \% \). Consequently, the percentage abundance of the isotope with atomic mass 15 will be \( (100 - x) \% \). 2. **Set Up the Equation:** ...
