The ATOMBy convention there is color,

By convention sweetness,By convention bitterness,

But in reality there are atoms and space.

Atomic Mass Units

atomic mass unit (amu) =

the mass of one proton

1.66 10-27 g

Mass Number

Atomic Number

Sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom

Always a whole number

# of neutrons = mass # - atomic #

The number of protons within the nucleus

How to calculate the average atomic mass of an element:

List all isotopes, mass numbers, and percent relative abundance of an element

Multiply the mass number of each isotope by its relative abundance

Add all the products together = atomic mass

Atomic mass is an average

An example:

Chlorine-35 (35Cl) has 17 protons and 18 neutrons and has a relative abundance of

75.8%

Chlorine-37 (37Cl) has 17 protons and 20 neutrons and appears 24.2% of the time.

Multiply the mass number of each isotope by its relative abundance

(Chlorine-35) 35 amu × 0.758 = 26.53 amu(Chlorine-37) 37 amu × 0.242 = 8.95 amu

Add all the products together = atomic mass

26.53 amu + 8.95 amu = 35.48 amu
