Relative Atomic Mass

Weighted average mass- due to presence of isotopes

Relative Isotopic Mass, (Ar) of an element: •Relative isotopic mass = Average mass of one atom of element 1/12 x mass of one carbon-12 • Relative isotopic mass, carbon = 12.01

RAM = 12.01 Relative Abundance

13

Why RAM is not a whole number?

Relative Isotopic Mass: = (Mass 12C x % Ab) + (Mass 13C x % Ab) = (12 x 98.9/100) + (13 x 1.07/100) = 12.01

IB Questions on Mass Spectrometer

Mass spectrometer used to investigate isotopic composition of elements. Thallium has two isotopes. 1) State symbol of two singly charged ions form. 2) State which ion will follow path marked X on diagram. lighter -> DEFLECTED MORE 3) Doubly charged ions form. Suggest reason whether they would be deflected less or more than ions at X and Y. DEFLECTED MORE. Cause deflection depends on m/z ratio. Low Mass + High charge -> m/z ratio is low -> deflected more. Naturally occuring boron has 2 isotopes. RAM boron is 10.81.

Germanium is analysed in mass spec. The first and last processes are vaporization and detection. 1) State the names of other 3 processes in order in which they occur Answer: Ionization -> Acceleration -> Deflection 2) For each of processes named in a (i), outline how process occur Ionization -> Sample bombarded with high energy/high speed electrons Acceleration -> Cations (+ve charged ions) accelerated by an electric field Deflection -> Cations deflected by a magnetic field 3) Germanium found to have following composition i)Define relative atomic mass. Average / weighted masses of all isotopes of an element. ii) Calculate RAM, giving answer to two decimal places.

Vaporized magnesium is introduced into mass spec. One of the ions that reaches detector shown below. 1)Identify number of protons, neutron and electrons Answer : 12 protons, 13 neutrons, 11 electrons

2) State how ion is accelerated in mass spectrometer. Using a strong electric field/strong opposite charged plate/potential difference 3) The ion is also detected by changing the magnetic field. Deduce and explain by reference to m/z values of these two ions of magnesium, which of the ions and is detected using a stronger magnetic field. Answer: - due to lower charge -> m/z is higher -> deflected less -> needs a stronger magnetic field to deflect.
