Thank you for bringing to my attention the recent International Union of Pure & Applied Chemistry report “Atomic weights of the elements 2009” (C&EN, Dec. 20 ...

Part of Combined Science Structures, trends, chemical reactions, quantitative chemistry and analysis 25% of chlorine atoms are 37 Cl and 75% are 35 Cl. The weighted mean mass of chlorine is 35.5. The ...

The relative atomic masses of elements are proportional measures. For example, the Ar for helium is 4.0, and the A r for carbon is 12.0. This means that carbon atoms have three times the mass of ...
