1. 11a. An element with relative atomic mass 16.2
contains two isotopes 16P8 with relative
abundance 90% and mP8 with relative abundance
10%. What is the value of m?

SOLUTION
16.2 = 90 x 16 + 10 x m
100
16.2 = 9 x 16 + m
10 10
16.2 = 144 + m
10 10
16.2 = 144 + m
10
16.2 x 10 = 144 + m
162 = 144 + m
162 – 144 = m
18 = m
The value of m is 18
