The two naturally occurring isotopes of antimony, 121sb (57.21 percent) and 123sb (42.79 percent), have masses of 120.904 and 122.904 amu, respectively. what is the average atomic mass of sb? (a) 121.90 amu (b) 122.05 amu (c) 121.76 amu (d) 121.34 amu (e) 122.18 amu

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

Formula used to determine an average atomic mass :

Mass of isotope Sb-121 = 120.904 amu

Fractional abundance of Sb-121 = 57.21% = 0.5721

Mass of isotope Sb-123 = 122.904 amu

Fractional abundance of Sb-123 = 42.79% = 0.4279

Average atomic mass of Sb:
