Naturally occuring Boron consists of two isotopes having atomic masses 10.01 and 11.01 respectively. Calculate the percentage of both the isotopes in natural Boron (Atomic mass of natural Boron = 10.81)
Let the % of isotope with atomic mass 10.01 be ‘x’ % of isotope with atomic mass 11.01 = 100-x Avg at mass = $ { 10.01x + (100 - x)11.01 \over 100 } = 10.81(Given) $
