Lamarsh Solutions Chapter-2 2.5 This is a question of probability‚ For molecules which have an approximate weight of 2‚ there are two 1H and we can find the probability or the percentage over 1 as‚ 0.99985*0.99985=0.99970 The same calculation can be made for the mol. weights of 3 and 4 For 3 there are one 1H and one 2 H and so‚ 0.99985*0.00015=1.49e-4 For 4 there are two 2 H and so‚ 0.00015*0.00015=2.25e-8 2.7 From table of nuclides we can find the atomic weights of O and H using the abundances
