Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes, ²⁴Mg (isotopic mass = 23.9850 amu, abundance = 78.99%), ²⁵Mg (isotopic mass =

24.9858 amu, abundance = 10.00%), and ²⁶Mg.
(isotopic mass 5 25.9826 amu, abundance 5 11.01%). Calculate the atomic mass of magnesium.

The atomic mass of the  magnesium is : 24.31⋅g.

<h3>What is isotopes?</h3>

Isotopes are members of a family of elements that all have the same number of protons and different numbers of neutrons. The number of protons in the nucleus determines the atomic number of an element on the periodic table.

Magnesium has three natural isotopes: ²⁴Mg, ²⁵Mg, and ²⁶Mg.

<h3>What is atomic mass ?</h3>

Atomic mass is the mass of an atom. The SI unit of mass is the kilogram, while atomic mass is often expressed in the non-SI unit dalton (synonymous with uniform atomic mass unit). 1 Da is defined as 1/12 the mass of a free carbon-12 atom at rest in the ground state.

Calculation :

The atomic mass is the weighted average of the individual isotopic masses:

(23.99×78.99%+24.99×10.00%+25.98×11.01%)⋅g=24.31⋅g

Baking soda (nahco3) is an active ingredient in some antacids. determine the percent composition of oxygen in baking soda.
telo118 [61]
Assuming the question is asking for percent composition by mass,

The molar mass of sodium bicarbonate is:

22.990 + 1.008 + 12.011 + 3*15.999 = 84.006 g/mol

The molar mass of 3 oxygen atoms is:

3*15.999 = 47.997 g/mol

The percentage composition by mass is:

47.997/84.006 * 100% = 57.1% (3 s.f.)
