Understanding Relative Atomic Mass and Standard Atomic Weight

What is the main difference between relative atomic mass and standard atomic weight?

• Relative atomic mass is always higher than standard atomic weight.

• Relative atomic mass is for a specific sample, while standard atomic weight is for a normal sample.

• Standard atomic weight is calculated using only one isotope.

• Relative atomic mass is used only in space research.

In the chlorine example, what are the three key pieces of information needed to calculate the relative atomic mass?

• Sample volume, isotope density, and isotope charge.

• Number of isotopes, relative abundance, and atomic mass of each isotope.

• Number of isotopes, temperature, and pressure.

• Atomic number, electron configuration, and isotope color.

How is the abundance of isotopes expressed in the bromine example?

• As the volume of each isotope.

• As the atomic number of each isotope.

• As the total number of atoms.

• As a percentage of the total sample.

What does it mean if the calculated relative atomic mass of bromine is different from its standard atomic weight?

• The calculation is incorrect.

• The isotopes are unstable.

• The sample is not a normal sample.

• The sample is from another planet.

In the titanium example, why is the equation extended?

• Because the isotopes are from different planets.

• Because the isotopes are radioactive.

• Because there are multiple isotopes involved.

• Because the sample is larger than usual.

What is the standard atomic weight of titanium used for comparison in the video?

• 46.00

• 47.86

• 50.00

• 48.00

What is the significance of reducing the relative atomic mass to significant figures?

• It helps in identifying isotopes.

• It provides a more precise comparison with the standard atomic weight.

• It makes the calculation easier.

• It is required for all chemical calculations.
