[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In the following online tutorial students will be asked to define atomic number, mass number and understand how isotopes differ from one another. They will be able...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students explain the workings of a mass spectrometer, and describe how this device is used to determine average atomic mass.

A tutorial describing average atomic mass and how it is calculated.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Students explore how percent abundances of different isotopes affect the average atomic mass for that given element. Students form connections between the average atomic mass and a person's body mass....

In this activity, learners apply what they have learned about weighted averages, isotopes, and systems of equations to a new situation - coins in a sealed container. They learn some historical information regarding the composition of...

This activity allows students to gain an understanding of the relationship between the mass and relative abundance of an isotope and its effect on the average atomic mass of the element. Students will be given a random sample of the...

This lesson will define an isotope and demonstrate how to determine the average atomic mass of an element. It is 2 of 9 in the series titled "Isotopes."

This lesson will define an isotope and demonstrate how to determine the average atomic mass of an element. It is 8 of 9 in the series titled "Isotopes."

This lesson will define an isotope and demonstrate how to determine the average atomic mass of an element. It is 4 of 9 in the series titled "Isotopes."

You will be presented with three different isotopes of the same element. See if you can calculate the atom's average relative mass.

Explains the basics of atomic structure, from simple definitions to information about quantum theory. Accurate and helpful basics whether or not you need the more advanced information.
