Relative Atomic Mass Calculation

Table 1 shows information about two isotopes of element $Y\text{Y}$ .

	Mass number	Percentage (%) abundance
Isotope 1	10	20
Isotope 2	11	80

Calculate the relative atomic mass ( $A_r$ ) of element $Y\text{Y}$ using the equation:

$2100A_r = \frac{(\text{mass number} \times \text{percentage}) \text{ of isotope 1} + (\text{mass number} \times \text{percentage}) \text{ of isotope 2}}{100}$

Give your answer to 1 decimal place.

Identity of Element Y

Suggest the identity of element $Y\text{Y}$ . Use the periodic table.

Atom Scale Calculation

The radius of an atom of element $Y\text{Y}$ is $8.7 \times 10^{-11}\text{ m}$ .

The radius of the centre of the atom is $000\frac{1}{10\,000}$ of the radius of the atom.

Calculate the radius of the centre of an atom of element $Y\text{Y}$ . Give your answer in standard form.
