Question:

The four naturally occurring isotopes of strontium have the atomic masses 83.9134 u; 85.9093 u; 86.9089 u; and 87.9056 u. The percent isotopic abundance of the lightest isotope is 0.56% and of the heaviest, 82.58%. Estimate the percent isotopic abundances of the other two. Why is this result only a rough approximation?
