Why are the atomic mass numbers of an element not hole numbers?

Its the average of the weight of the different isotopes of that element.


How is the atomic mass of an element is affected by the distribution of its isotopes in nature?

Isotopes have a different amount of Neutrons. The atomic mass is the sum of Protons and Neutrons. Therefore having a different number of Neutrons makes the atomic mass greater. Or vice versa. Boom. Solved.


Why is there an average atomic mass?

There is an average atomic mass because all atoms of the same element do not have the same amount of neutrons (isotopes), therefore variations in atomic mass exist. The average atomic mass of an element is the estimated average of all the atoms of the same element, given the average of different isotopes in a scientific sample.


How does the average atomic mass of an element differ from the mass of an individual atom of the same element?

The average atomic mass takes into account the different isotopes of an element and their relative abundance, while the mass of an individual atom is specific to that particular isotope. The average atomic mass is a weighted average based on all isotopes present in a sample, providing a more accurate representation of the element's mass in nature.

What is it called when you have the same element but different mass number?

They are isotopes of that element, they have different neutron numbers.


What is the average mass of the mixture of an elements isotopes?

All of the isotopes in an element's atomic masses divided by the amount of isotopes there are is the weighted-average mass of the mixture of an elements isotopes.
