Iridium has two naturally occurring isotopes, Iridium-191 and Iridium-193. If the average atomic mass of orodum s 192.217, what are the average percent abundances of each isotope?

The percent isotopic abundance of Ir-193 is 60.85 %

The percent isotopic abundance of Ir-191 is 39.15 %

Explanation:

we know there are two naturally occurring isotopes of iridium, Ir-191 and Ir-193

First of all we will set the fraction for both isotopes

X for the isotopes having mass 193

1-x for isotopes having mass 191

The average atomic mass is 192.217

we will use the following equation,

193x + 191(1-x) = 192.217

193x + 191 - 191x = 192.217

193x- 191x = 192.217 - 191

2x = 1.217

x= 1.217/2

x= 0.6085

0.6085 × 100 = 60.85 %

60.85% is abundance of Ir-193 because we solve the fraction x.

now we will calculate the abundance of Ir-191.

(1-x)

1-0.6085 =0.3915

0.3915× 100= 39.15 %

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.
