Isotope Mass Calculator

Enter two values to calculate the required value

Enter any two values (Total Substance Mass, Isotopes Percent Mass, or Isotope Mass) to calculate the missing value.

The Isotope Mass Calculator is a simple tool used to compute the mass of isotopes in a substance, the total mass of the substance, or the percentage of isotopes in the total mass.

This is widely applicable in fields like chemistry, physics, and radiology for analyzing isotope distributions, calculating atomic weights, and more.

Solved Examples

Example 1: Calculate the isotope mass for a substance with a total mass of 200 g, where the isotopes make up 15% of the total mass.

Step Calculation Result
Formula Isotope Mass=Total Mass×Percent Mass100\text{Isotope Mass} = \text{Total Mass} \times \frac{\text{Percent Mass}  
Substitute Values Isotope Mass=200×15100\text{Isotope Mass} = 200 \times \fra 30g30 \, \text{g}

Example 2: Find the total substance mass if the isotope mass is 40 g and it constitutes 20% of the total mass.

Step Calculation Result
Formula Total Mass=Isotope Mass×100Percent Mass\text{Total Mass} = \frac{\text{Isotope Mass} \times 100}{\text{Percent Mas  
Substitute Values Total Mass=40×10020\text{Total Mass} = \frac{40 \times 100} 200g200 \, \text{g

Applications

  • Isotope Analysis: Determine the contribution of isotopes in a sample.
  • Nuclear Studies: Measure isotopic compositions in radiological research.
  • Chemistry: Analyze molecular and atomic weights using isotopes.

FAQs

  1. Can I calculate the percentage mass of isotopes directly?
    Yes, simply enter the isotope mass and total substance mass to get the percent mass.

  2. What happens if total mass or percent mass is zero?
    A warning will appear, as these values cannot be zero for valid calculations.

  3. Can this tool be used for radioactive isotopes?
    Yes, it can compute the mass contributions of radioactive isotopes within a substance.

Easily compute isotope mass, total substance mass, or isotope percent mass using the Isotope Mass Calculator. Perfect for scientific and research applications.
