Why is the atomic mass of an element usually fractional?
Atomic mass
Atomicmass=∑Massofisotopes×Percentageofabundanceofisotopes100
Atomic mass of an element is usually fractional
Example
Atomicmass=∑Massofisotopes×Percentageofabundanceofisotopes100=35u×75.8+37u×24.2100=3548.4100=35.485u
The atomic mass of an element is usually fractional because:
Why some of the elements have fractional atomic masses?
Why is it that elements have fractional atomic mass?
Why are the atomic masses of most of the elements fractional?
