There are two isotopes of an element with atomic mass z. Heavier on has atomic mass z+2 and lighter one has z-1, then abundance of lighter one isA. `66.6%`B. `96.7%`C. `6.67%`D. `33.3%` |

Answer» Correct Answer - A Let percent abundance of lighter isotope = x `:. (x(z-1)+(100-x)(z+2))/(100)=z` `xz-z+100z+200-xz-2x=100z` `-3x = -200` `x = (200)/(6) = 66.6` `:.` percent abundance of lighter isotopes = x |
