(a) Two stable isotopes of lithium 6Li3 and7Li3 have respective abundances of 7.5% and 92.5%. These isotopes have masses 6.01512 u and 7.01600 u, respectively. Find the atomic mass of lithium.
(b) Boron has two stable isotopes, 10B5 and 11B5 . Their respective masses are 10.01294 u and 11.00931 u, and the atomic mass of boron is 10.811 u. Find the abundances of 10B5 and 11B5.
(a) Mass of 6Li3, lithium isotope, m 1 = 6.01512 u
Mass of 7Li3, lithium isotope, m = 7.01600 u
Abundance of 6Li3 , η1 = 7.5%
Abundance of 7Li3 , η2 = 92.5%
The atomic mass of lithium atom is given as:
( b ) Mass of boron isotope 10B5 , m = 10.01294 u
Mass of boron isotope 11B5 , m = 11.00931 u
Abundance of 10B5, η1 = x %
Abundance of 11B5, η2 = (100 − x ) %
Atomic mass of boron, m = 10.811 u The atomic mass of boron atom is given as:
And 100 − x = 80.11%
Hence, the abundance of is 10B5 19.89% and that of 11B5 is 80.11%.
