Answer:
The fraction of isotope 1 is 50.7 % and fraction fraction of isotope 1 is 49.2 %.
Explanation:
Given that
Weight of isotope 1 = 78.918 amu
Weight of isotope 2 = 80.916 amu
Average atomic weight= 79.903 amu
Lets take fraction of isotope 1 is x then fraction of isotope 2 will be 1-x.
The total weight will be summation of these two isotopes
79.903 = 78.918 x + 80.916(1-x)
By solving above equation
80.916 - 79.903 = (80.916-78.918) x
x=0.507
So the fraction of isotope 1 is 50.7 % and fraction fraction of isotope 1 is 49.2 %.
