How do you find the mass and natural abundance of si-30?

Answer 1

To find the mass of silicon-30 (Si-30), you can refer to the Atomic Mass unit (amu) values listed in scientific literature or databases such as the National Nuclear Data Center (NNDC) or the International Atomic Mass Evaluation. The natural abundance of Si-30 can be determined through mass spectrometry or isotopic analysis of natural silicon samples, which typically reveal that Si-30 has a natural abundance of about 3.1% among silicon isotopes.
