D. Show your solution in computing the average atomic weight of the following isotopes.
1. Three isotopes of silicon occur in nature: 28Si (92.21 percent), which has a mass of 27.97693
amu; 29Si (4.70 percent), which has a mass of 28.97659 amu; and 30Si (3.09 percent), which has a
mass of 29.97376 amu. Calculate the atomic weight of silicon.
(mass)(abundance in decimal point)
2. Gallium is a metallic element found in small lasers used in compact disc players. in a sample
of gallium, there is 60.2% of gallium-69 (68.9 amu) atoms and 39.8% of gallium-71 (70.9
amu) atoms. what is the atomic mass of gallium?
