How do you calculate the atomic mass of an element with different isotopes?

To calculate average Atomic Mass from different isotopes of an element, we take into account the relative atomic masses of isotopes and their relative abundance on Earth. The following formula is used to calculate the needful :
atomic mass = mass of isotope x percent abundance + mass of isotope x percent abundance / 100 (whole expression divided by 100)

Does an isotope of an element have a different atomic mass?
Yes; isotopes of the same element have the same atomic number but differ in their atomic masses.
How do the atomic number of the different isotopes an element compare?
The atomic number is the same for the all isotopes of a chemical element.
How you calculate the relative atomic weight of uranium?
The atomic weight of an element is derived from the atomic masses of the isotopes of this element and from the percentage of these isotopes. The correct terms are: - atomic weight for elements - atomic mass for an isotope
What data must you know about the the isotopes of an element to calculate the atomic mass of an element?
Number of protons
Isotopes of the same element have different .?
atomic masses
Does an isotope of an element have a different atomic mass?
Yes; isotopes of the same element have the same atomic number but differ in their atomic masses.
How do the atomic number of the different isotopes an element compare?
The atomic number is the same for the all isotopes of a chemical element.
How you calculate the relative atomic weight of uranium?
The atomic weight of an element is derived from the atomic masses of the isotopes of this element and from the percentage of these isotopes. The correct terms are: - atomic weight for elements - atomic mass for an isotope
What information about an element's isotopes is needed to calculate that element's average atomic mass?
the atomic number of each isotope-apex;)
What data must you know about the the isotopes of an element to calculate the atomic mass of an element?
Number of protons
How is the atomic mass of an element calculate?
By taking the wieghted averages of naturally occurring isotopes of that element. :)
What identifies different isotopes of an element?
the atomic number
Isotopes of the same element have different .?
atomic masses
How do isotopes of an element differ?
Different isotopes of an element differ in the number of neutrons and thus in their atomic weight.
The various atomic weights of the same element are called?
Atoms of the same element with different atomic masses are known as isotopes. Isotopes differ only by the number of neutrons present in the nucleus of the isotopes. The number of protons is the same for all isotopes of an element (because if there were different numbers of protons, then the atoms would not be of the same element).
Atoms of same chemical element that have different atomic mass are known as?
Isotopes. They differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.
How do you know the difference between isotopes and an element?
Isotopes are atoms of an element having different number of electrons.
