Question
how many isotopes are represented for the element in this mass spectrum?
unknown element
there are ? stable isotopes.
Wait, the x - axis is 81, 83, 85, 87, 89. The peaks are at 85, 87, 89. So three peaks. So the number of isotopes is 3? No, wait maybe the first peak (small) at 85, then a peak at 87, then a peak at 89. So three isotopes.
Wait, maybe I made a mistake in the initial count. Let's look at the graph again. The x - axis labels: 81, 83, 85, 87, 89. The red bars (peaks) are at 85, 87, 89. So that's three peaks? No, wait there is a peak at 85, a peak at 87, a peak at 89. So three isotopes. Wait, but the answer is 4? No, I think the correct number is 4? No, I'm wrong. Wait, the correct answer is 4? No, I think I see four peaks? Wait no, the x - axis is 81, 83, 85, 87, 89. The red bars: one at 8
