Chromium has an atomic mass of 51.9961 u51.9961 u and consists of four isotopes, cr50,cr50, cr52,cr52, cr53,cr53, and cr54.cr54. the cr52cr52 isotope has a natural abundance of 83.79%83.79% and an atomic mass of 51.9405 u.51.9405 u. the cr54cr54 isotope has a natural abundance of 2.37%2.37% and an atomic mass of 53.9389 u.53.9389 u. the natural abundances of the cr50cr50 and cr53cr53 isotopes exist in a ratio of 0.4579: 1,0.4579: 1, and the cr50cr50 isotope has an atomic mass of 49.9460 u.49.9460 u. determine the atomic mass of the cr53 isotope. cr53 isotope.

The atomic mass of isotope is 52.8367 amu

Explanation:

We know that:

Total percentage abundance of the isotope = 100 %

Percentage abundance of isotopes =

We are given:

Ratio of isotopes = 0.4579 : 1

Percentage abundance of isotope =

Percentage abundance of isotope =

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

  .....(1)

Let the mass of isotope be 'x'

Mass of isotope = 49.9460 amu

Percentage abundance of = 4.37 %

Fractional abundance of isotope = 0.0437

Mass of isotope = 51.9405 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope = 83.79 %

Fractional abundance of isotope = 0.8379

Mass of isotope = x amu

Percentage abundance of isotope = 9.49 %

Fractional abundance of isotope = 0.0949

Mass of isotope = 53.9389 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope = 2.37 %

Fractional abundance of isotope = 0.0237

Average atomic mass of chromium = 51.9961 amu

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

Hence, the atomic mass of isotope is 52.8367 amu

they are both synthetic elements

he uptake of drugs from the intestine is often strongly influenced by diffusion. for example, consider a water-insoluble steroid for treating inflammation that is solubilized in aggregates of detergent molecules, called micelles. these micelles, aggregates of 80 soap molecules, have a molecular weight of 24,000, a diameter of 2.6 nm, and a charge of -27. the positively charge ions (counterions) in this system are na".
