This element is Rubidium (Rb) and has an average atomic mass of 85.468 u
Explanation:
The average mass of an element is calculated by taking the average of the atomic masses of its stable isotopes.
The enitre atomic mass = 100 % or 1
⇒ this consists of X-85 with 72.17 % abundance with atomic massof 84.9118 g/mol
72.17 % = 0.7217
⇒ this consists of X-87 with 27.83 % abundance with atomic mass of 86.9092 g/mol
27.83 % = 0.2783
To calculate the mass of this isotope we use the following:
0.7271 * 84.9118 + 0.2783 * 86.9092 =85.468 g/mol
This element is Rubidium(Rb) and has an average atomic mass of 85.468 u
