    Formula for calculating [Average Atomic Mass] of Pb (Lead) : AAM of [element] = (Mass of isotope) * (Relative abundance) and you can repeat the " (Mass of isotope) * (Relative abundance) " part for each isotope! Therefore ... AAM of Pb = (203.97302) (0.014) + (205.97444) (0.241) + (206.97587) (0.221) + (207.97663) (0.524) AAM of Pb = 207.21688371 amu [OR] 207.2 amu on most periodic tables.
