Synopsis : The biennial review of atomic weight,
determinations and other cognate data has resulted in changes for the
standard atomic weight of the following elements: boron, carbon, fluorine,
sodium, aluminium, phosphorus, scandium, manganese, cobalt, arsenic,
rhodium, caesium, cerium, praseodymium, europium, terbium, holmium,
thulium, platinum, gold, and bismuth.
An annotation for potassium has been changed in the Table
of Standard Atomic Weights. To eliminate possible confusion in the reporting
of relative lithium isotope-ratio data, the Commission recommends that
such data be expressed using 7Li/6Li ratios and that reporting using
6Li/7Li ratios be discontinued. Because relative isotope-ratio data
for sulfur are commonly being expressed on non-corresponding scales,
the Commission recommends that such isotopic data be expressed relative
to VCDT (Vienna Ca�on Diablo Troilite) on a scale such that 34S/32S
of IAEA�S�1 silver sulfide is 0.9997 times that of VCDT. Many elements
have a different isotopic composition in some non�terrestrial materials.
Some recent data on of oxygen are included in this report for the information
of the interested scientific community.
