A periodic table might list the average atomic mass of magnesium as being 24.312 u, which is the result of weighing the atomic masses of magnesium isotopes according to their natural abundances on Earth. The three isotopes and their masses are Mg24 23.985 04 uMg25 24.985 84 u and Mg26 25.982 59 u. The natural abundance of Mg24 is 78.99% by mass (that is 78.99% of the mass of a naturally occurring sample of magnesium is due to the presence of Mg24). What is the abundance of (a) Mg25 and (b) Mg26?
