Vanadium has an atomic mass of 50.9415 amu. it has two common isotopes. one isotopes has a mass of 50.9440 amu and a relative abundance of 99.75% .

Isotope simply means one of the forms of a chemical element. The mass of the second isotope of vanadium is 49.944 amu

Given that:

--- atomic mass of vanadium

---- the mass of the first isotope

---- the relative abundance of the first isotope

The following equation can be used to calculate the mass of the second isotope.

Where:

So, we have:

Collect like terms

Solve for

Hence, the mass of the second isotope is 49.944 amu

the correct option is c.

isotopes refers to different forms of the same element with the same atomic number but different mass number as a result of difference in their neutron numbers. isotopes have different relative atomic mass but share the same chemical properties.

i believe the answer is a.
