What is Atomic Mass Calculator?
The Atomic Mass Calculator is a tool designed to calculate the atomic mass of an element or isotope by using the atomic number, mass number, and isotope abundance if applicable.
How to Use Atomic Mass Calculator Website?
To use the Atomic Mass Calculator, enter the atomic number, mass number, and optional isotope abundance of an element or isotope, and click "Calculate Atomic Mass" to get the result.
What is the Formula of Atomic Mass Calculator?
The formula for calculating atomic mass is based on the weighted average of the atomic masses of an element’s isotopes. If the isotope abundances are given, the formula is:
Atomic Mass = (Isotope Mass1 × Abundance1) + (Isotope Mass2 × Abundance2) + ...
