The stable isotope concentrations of a molecular compound or material are presented in ratio form as the molar ratio of the heavy-to-light isotopes. Since this ratio is small, we typically present ...

While the number of protons defines the element (e.g., hydrogen, carbon, etc.) and the sum of the protons and neutrons gives the atomic mass, the number of neutrons defines the isotope of that element ...

Stable isotopes are non-radioactive forms of atoms. Although they do not emit radiation, their unique properties enable them to be used in a broad variety of applications, including water and soil ...

An isotope is named after the element and the mass number of its atoms. For example, carbon-12 is an isotope of carbon with a mass number of 12. The relative atomic mass of an element is the ...

Chlorine naturally exists as two isotopes, \(_{17}^{35}\textrm{Cl}\) (chlorine-35) and \(_{17}^{37}\textrm{Cl}\) (chlorine-37). The abundance of chlorine-35 is 75% ...

From the discovery of gravity to the first mission to defend Earth from an asteroid, here are the most important physics ...

This formula is comparable in form and performance ... those obtained using contemporary kinetic methods (or any reference isotope-dilution mass spectroscopy-traceable method).

Formula milk is the only safe alternative to breastfeeding or using breast milk for feeding your baby. If you choose not to breastfeed or are unable to, formula will help to provide the important ...

TerraPower Isotopes this week announced a milestone, becoming the first commercial-scale producer of a promising and rare ...

The findings leverage isotope hydrology techniques such as measuring stable isotopes in water molecules to elucidate the contributions of various water sources to river flow, offering critical ...
