Chapter 2, Problem 124E

(choose chapter or problem)

On the previous page is a representation of 50 atoms of a fictitious element called westmontium (Wt). The red spheres represent Wt-296, the blue spheres Wt-297, and the green spheres Wt-298.

a. Assuming that the sample is statistically representative of a naturally occurring sample, calculate the percent natural abundance of each Wt isotope.

b. Draw the mass spectrum for a naturally occurring sample of Wt.

c. The mass of each Wt isotope is measured relative to C-12 and tabulated next. Use the mass of C-12 to convert each of the masses to amu and calculate the atomic mass of Wt.
