    This document introduces nuclear chemistry concepts such as isotopes, which are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. It explains how to calculate average atomic mass based on the relative abundances of isotopes. Examples are provided to demonstrate how to identify isotopes based on their atomic and mass numbers, and how to calculate average atomic mass using isotopic abundance data.

    Intro to Nuclear Chemistry

    Objectives: Calculate the average atomic mass of an element


    based on its isotopes.

    Mr. John
    Nucleus
    • Remember almost all the
    mass of the atom it’s
    • Protons and located on the nucleus.
    Neutrons
    • The nucleons are
    bound together by
    the strong force.

    Intramolecular forces!
    Isotopes
    • Same element.
    • Same chemical properties.
    • Different mass numbers because they
    possess different amount of neutrons.
    • All elements with atomic numbers
    greater than 83 are radioisotopes
    meaning that these elements have
    unstable nuclei and are radioactive.
    Isotopes
    17
    Exercise, characterize this Cl
    isotope!

    • Chlorine-37
    – atomic #: 17 Mass Number (A)

    37
    Cl
    – mass #: 37
    – # of protons: 17 17
    – # of electrons: 17 Atomic Number (Z)

    – # of neutrons: 20 n = A – Z = 37 -17 = 20

    Average Atomic Mass

    Average Atomic Mass: It’s the


    atomic mass that appears in
    the Periodic Table.

    Remember:
    • Mass Number (A) corresponds to the amount of
    protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
    • When an atom has different isotopes it’s
    necessary to calculate the average atomic mass to
    put the atomic mass in the periodic table.
    • Calculate the average atomic mass, using the
    abundance multiplying the mass number.
    More Exercises
    1. One atom has 20 protons and a mass of 44. Another atom has 20 protons
    and a mass number of 40. What is the identity of these atoms? How do you
    account for the difference in mass numbers?
