Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes with masses of 23.99 amu, 24.99 amu, and 25.98 amu and natural abundances of 78.99%, 10.00% and 11.01% respectively. How do you calculate the atomic mass of magnesium?

Respuesta :

Answer:24.31

Explanation:Contribution made by isotope of mass 23.99= 23.99×78.99=1894.97

Contribution made by isotope of mass 24.99=24.99×10.00=249.9

Contribution made by isotope of mass 25.98=25.98×11.01=286.04

Total contribution=1894.97+249.9+286.04=2430.91

Average mass=2430.91÷100

=24.31
