Choose an element with at least three stable nuclides. Element name:
Write the isotope symbols for each of its nuclides, in order of abundance. (Some may be left empty.)
a.
b.
most abundant
c. Using the format from lecture, draw atomic models of its two (2) most abundant nuclides. Clearly label:
Nucleus, electron cloud, amount of electrons, protons, neutrons (also the amount of protons & neutrons)
d. Calculate your element's atomic weight using the mass and % abundance of each of its stable nuclides.
Does it match the atomic weight on the periodic table used in this class?
