Explanation

In examining several amino acids, the amino acid group will remain same the difference will be generated by the 'R' group attached to the chain.

'R' group can be :

  • Single long chain of carbons with saturated carbon-carbon bond.
  • Single long chain with unsaturated carbon-carbon bond Including aromatic carbon rings.
  • Branched chain with saturated carbon-carbon bond
  • Branched chain with unsaturated carbon-carbon bond.
  • Presence of any other atoms like : sulfur, oxygen, phosphorus etc.

For example: alanine and methionine are different amino acids. since the amino acid part is same but the only difference in them is in alanine CH_3 group is present as a 'R' group whereas in methionine long unbranched carbon chain with sulfur atom is present as a'R' group.

Gallium has two naturally occurring isotopes: 69ga with a mass of 68.9256 amu and a natural abundance of 60.11% and 71ga. use th
Nataly [62]

There are two naturally occurring isotopes of gallium:  mass of Ga-69 isotope is 68.9256 amu and its percentage abundance is 60.11%, let the mass of other isotope that is Ga-71 be X, the percentage abundance can be calculated as:

%Ga-71=100-60.11=39.89%

Atomic mass of an element is calculated by taking sum of atomic masses of its isotopes multiplied by their percentage abundance.

Thus, in this case:

Atomic mass= m(Ga-69)×%(Ga-69)+X×%(Ga-71)

From the periodic table, atomic mass of Ga is 69.723 amu.

Putting the values,

69.723 amu=(68.9256 amu)(\frac{60.11}{100})+X(\frac{39.89}{100})

Thus,

69.723 amu=41.4312 amu+X(\frac{39.89}{100})

Rearranging,

X=\frac{69.723 amu-41.4312 amu}{0.3989}=70.9246 amu

Therefore, mass of Ga-71 isotope is 70.9246 amu.
