The weighted (by natural abundance) average mass of these isotopes is the atomic weight listed for the element in the periodic table. The abundance of an element varies from planet to planet.

Percent natural abundances refer to the relative proportions, expressed as percentages by number, in which the isotopes of an element are found in natural sources.
