<span>A fast moving stream of air has a lower air pressure than a
slower air stream. As the stream of air moved over the
top of the paper, the air pressure over the paper dropped. The
air pressure underneath the paper stayed the same. The
greater air pressure underneath lifted the paper strip and it
rose. The idea that a moving air stream has lower air pressure
than air that is not moving is called “Bernoulli’s Principle”.
</span>The
force of the moving air underneath the balloon was enough to
hold it up. The weight added by the paper clip prevents
the balloon from going too high. But that is only part
of the story. The balloon stays inside the moving stream
of air because the pressure inside is the air stream is lower
than the still air around it. As the balloon moves toward the
still air outside of the air stream, the higher pressure of
the still air forces the balloon back into the lower pressure
of the air stream. Bernoulli’s Principle at work again!
solution:
The quoted atomic mass on the Periodic Table is the WEIGHTED average of the individual isotopic masses. The higher the isotopic percentage, the MORE that isotope will contribute to the isotopic mass. For this reason, most masses that are quoted on the Table are non-integral.
By way of example we could look to the hydrogen atom. The VAST majority of hydrogen atoms (in this universe) are the protium isotope. i.e. 1H, whose nuclei contain JUST the defining proton. There is a smaller percentage (>1%) of hydrogen atoms WITH one NEUTRON in their nuclei to give the deuterium isotope. i.e. 2H, and because this is relatively cheap, and easily incorporated into a molecule, deuterium labelling is routinely used in analysis.
And there is even a smaller percentage of hydrogen atoms with TWO NEUTRONS in their nuclei, to give the tritium isotope. i.e. 3H. The weighted average of the isotopic percentages gives 
Mass is a basic property of matter and is made of atoms. Atoms are made of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons make up the majority of the mass in an atom. Atoms may vary in the number of neutrons they have (called isotopes), and therefore the exact atomic mass may vary from atom to atom
