ram, rmm and mass spectra
1.1 EXERCISE 2 – ram, rmm and mass spectra
Deduce
the relative atomic masses of the following elements.
1.
Silicon
(28Si 92.21%, 29Si 4.70%, 30Si 3.09%)
2. Silver (107Ag 51.88%, 109Ag
48.12%)
3. Boron (10B 19.7%, 11B
80.7%)
4. Gallium (69Ga 60.2%, 71Ga
39.8%)
5. Zirconium:

Assume
in all cases the relative isotopic mass is equal to the mass number.
--------
6. Bromine has two isotopes, with mass numbers
79 and 81. Its relative atomic mass is often given as 80. What does that tell
you about the relative abundance of the two isotopes?
7. Most argon atoms have a mass number 40. How
many neutrons does this isotope have?
The relative isotopic mass of this isotope is 39.961, but the relative atomic
mass of argon is 39.948. What can you deduce about the other isotopes of argon?
----------
8. For each of the following stages in a mass
spectrometer, state which part of the spectrometer is responsible for it and
how it works:
a)
ionization
b)
acceleration
c)
deflection
d)
detection
--------------------
9.
Deduce, giving reasons, the relative molecular mass of compound A, which has
the following mass spectrum:
