The naturally occurring cobalt consists of only one isotope

Reference no: EM13529187

Naturally occurring cobalt consists of only one isotope, ^59Co, whose relative atomic mass is 58.9332. A synthetic radioactive isotope of cobalt, ^60Co, relative atomic mass 59.9338, is used in radiation therapy for cancer. A 1.7801 g sample of cobalt has an apparent "atomic mass" of 58.9901. Find the mass of ^60Co in this example.
