Deduce the relative atomic masses of the following elements. 1. Silicon (28Si 92.21%, 29Si 4.7 %, ! Si !. 9%" 2. Silver (1 7#g $1.88%, 1 9#g 48.12%" !. %oron (1 % 19.7%, 11% 8 .7%" 4. &allium ('9&a ' .2%, 71&a !9.8%" $. (irconium)
#ssume in all cases the relative isoto*ic mass is e+ual to the mass num,er. -------'. 7. %romine has two isoto*es, with mass num,ers 79 and 81. .ts relative atomic mass is often given as 8 . /hat does that tell 0ou a,out the relative a,undance of the two isoto*es1 2ost argon atoms have a mass num,er 4 . 3ow man0 neutrons does this isoto*e have1 4he relative isoto*ic mass of this isoto*e is !9.9'1, ,ut the relative atomic mass of argon is !9.948. /hat can 0ou deduce a,out the other isoto*es of argon1 ---------8. 5or each of the following stages in a mass s*ectrometer, state which *art of the s*ectrometer is res*onsi,le for it and how it wor6s)
