Atomic Mass

Masses in amu Only carbon-12 has an atomic mass exactly equal to its mass # One atomic mass unit (amu) is defined as 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom However, protons and neutrons do not have a mass of exactly 1 amu Example: The mass of chlorine-37 is actually amu

Isotopes To find the atomic mass of an element, the masses of all the different isotopes must be considered Example: Chlorine exists as 2 isotopes, chlorine-35 (mass = amu) and chlorine-37 (mass = amu)

Fractional Abundance Different isotopes are not equally abundant in nature Isotopes are typically found in constant ratios called fractional abundances Example: Chlorine-35’s fractional abundance is 75.53%. Chlorine-37 makes up the remaining 24.47% of the chlorine atoms.

Calculating Atomic Masses Due to fractional abundances of isotopes, the atomic mass of an element must be a weighted average. Is the atomic mass of chlorine closer to 35 or 37? 35 Why? Chlorine-35 is the more abundant isotope
