What should I read to learn this content from the table of contents?
Content:
Explain the quantitative relationship between the mass spectrum of an element and the masses of the element’s isotopes.
The mass spectrum of a sample containing a single element can be used to determine the identity of the isotopes of that element and the relative abundance of each isotope in nature.
The average atomic mass of an element can be estimated from the weighted average of the isotopic masses using the mass of each isotope and its relative abundance.
