How heavy iron really is?

Chemistry Level 1

The following are the percentage abundancies of isotopes of F e \ce{Fe} (atomic number- 26):

  • X 54 X 2 2 54 Fe 5 % \ce{^{54}{Fe}} - 5\%

  • X 56 X 2 2 56 Fe 90 % \ce{^{56}{Fe}} - 90\%

  • X 57 X 2 2 57 Fe 5 % \ce{^{57}{Fe}} - 5\%

Calculate the atomic mass of F e \ce{Fe} in amu.

55.75 55.75 55.95 55.95 55.85 55.85 56.05 56.05

54 × 5 + 56 × 90 + 57 × 5 100 \frac {54×5+56×90+57×5}{100} =55.95
