Explain why the following % abundance is incorrect: Li-7 7.015122 amu 7.59% Li-8 8.016004 amu 92.41%
It would result in an average amu closer to 8 rather than 7 - SEE PERIODIC TABLE!

Explain why the following % abundance is incorrect: F-20 19.998403 amu 100%
It would result in an average amu closer to 20 rather than 19 - SEE PERIODIC TABLE!
300
James Chadwick bombarded Be-9 with Alpha particles to produce C-12 and this neutral particle having a mass the same as a proton.
What is the neutron?
