Atomic Mass is the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
Relative atomic mass is the ratio of the average mass of one atom of an element to one twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
Relative isotopic mass is the mass of an atom of an isotope of an element compared with one-twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
Thus an element will have ONE Relative Atomic Mass but there may be MANY individual Relative Isotopic Masses for an Element (depending on how many Isotopes it has).
What else can I help you with?
How do you find relative atomic mas?
Relative atomic mass is determined by comparing the mass of an atom to one-twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom, which is defined as exactly 12 atomic mass units (amu). To find it, you can use a mass spectrometer to measure the isotopic masses and their relative abundances, then calculate a weighted average based on these values. The formula used is: relative atomic mass = (isotopic mass × relative abundance) / total relative abundance for all isotopes. This gives a value that reflects the average mass of an atom of an element as found in nature.
How do you find relative isotopic mass?
its the same as the mass number e.g. oxygen(-16) is 16, carbon-12 is 12 but carbon-13 is 13 because it has an extra neutron i think anyway Really? I thought that the relative istopic mass was a ratio of the average atomic mass of the element compared to the average atomic mass of carbon. For example chlorine has an average atomic mass of 37 and carbons atomic mass is 12 so its 37 divided by 12 which is about 3:1.
How you determined the relative atomic mass of oxygen?
The relative atomic mass of oxygen is determined by taking the weighted average of the isotopic masses of its naturally occurring isotopes (O-16, O-17, O-18) in respect to their abundance in nature. This calculation gives an average value close to 16, which is the standard atomic mass unit for oxygen.
What is the relative atomic mass of an element whose isotopic composition is 90 percent b of 20X and 10 percent of 22 X?
0.90*(20x) + 0.10*(22x)18x + 2.2x20.2X
How isotopes can be deduce the fractional atomic masses of elements from the relative isotopic abundance?
The relationship between atomic mass and relative abundance of isotopes was the mas number is the number of protons and neutrons in a normal atom of the element and tha atomic mass is the actual mass of the atom, measured in grams.
What relationship exist between the atomic mass and the isotopes?
When atomic mass is expressed in unified atomic mass units, it is similar to isotopic mass and has the same numerical value as that of atomic mass. The atomic mass or the relative isotopic mass is the mass of one atom which at a time can be only one isotope.
What is needed to find the average atomic mass of the element?
To find the average atomic mass of an element, you need to know the isotopic masses of each of its isotopes and their relative abundances. Multiply the isotopic mass of each isotope by its relative abundance, then sum these values to calculate the average atomic mass.

What is the atomic mass on the periodic table?
Each element on the periodic table has two numbers: the atomic number and the relative atomic mass. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, and the relative atomic mass is the total number of protons and neutrons (so the difference between them is the number of neutrons). The relative atomic mass is always the higher of the two.
What is the relative atomic mass of an element whose isotopic composition is 90 percent b of 20X and 10 percent of 22 X?
0.90*(20x) + 0.10*(22x)18x + 2.2x20.2X
What is the difference between atomic mass and relative atomic mass?
Atomic mass is the measure of a mass of one atom in relation to 1/12 mass of Carbon 12 atom and measured in atomic mass unit(amu) or Dalton unit or grams/mol.Relative atomic mass is also the relative mass but does not have a unit but a ratio number.
How isotopes can be deduce the fractional atomic masses of elements from the relative isotopic abundance?
The relationship between atomic mass and relative abundance of isotopes was the mas number is the number of protons and neutrons in a normal atom of the element and tha atomic mass is the actual mass of the atom, measured in grams.
What is the isotopic notation for chlorine-35?
The isotopic notation for chlorine-35 is ( ^{35}_{17}Cl), representing the atomic mass (35) and atomic number (17) of chlorine.
What is the difference of a atomic number and atomic weight?
Atomic number is the number of a chemical element in the periodic table of Mendeleev; it is equal in the neutral state with the number of protons or electrons. Atomic weight is the mass of a chemical element (considering the isotopic composition) expressed in atomic mass units.
What are the difference between atomic fission to atomic nuclear?
The difference between atomic fission and atomic nuclear is that they both have something to do with atomic and war. Hope this helps I am kind of in a rush......Smile!
What is the difference between atomic mass and average atomic mass?
Atomic mass refers to the mass of a single atom of an element, while average atomic mass is the weighted average of the masses of all the isotopes of an element, taking into account their relative abundance in nature.
