The amu of the other isotope is 70.925amu .

Given,

Atomic mass of Gallium = 69.723amu

Let us consider the two isotopes of gallium is A1 and A2.

Given, the mass of isotope of gallium = A1

= 68.926amu

The percentage abundance of isotope (A1)

= 60.11% = 0.6011

Let us consider,

The total percentage abundance is 100% .

Now, the percentage abundance of isotope (A2)

= 100% - 60.11% = 39.89% = 0.3989

Acc to rule of percentage abundance,

amu of isotope 1 (A1) × fraction of A1 + amu of isotope 2 (A2) × fraction of A2 = amu of mixture ×1

68.926 amu × 0.6011 + A2 × 0.3989 = 69.723 ×1

41.431 + A2 × 0.3989 = 69.723

A2 × 0.3989 = 69.723 - 41.431

A2× 0.3989 = 28.292

A2 = 28.292/ 0.3989

A2 = 70.925 amu

Hence, the amu of the other isotope is 70.925amu .
