Can someone help please? Copper occurs naturally as a mix of two isotopes: Copper-63 with a mass of 62.930 amu and copper-65 with a mass of 64.928 amu. The percent abundance of copper-63 is 69.09%.
Calculate the atomic mass of copper.

63.55

Explanation:

The attached chart shows the calculation.  The orange line points to the % abundance of Cu-65, which is the difference of 100% less the % Abundance of Cu-65 (since there are only 2 isotopes).

The weighted average contribution of each istope is calculated (blue arrow) and then summed to find the atomic mass of copper.

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
