Abstract
The relation between the masses and mixing angle in a nonet of mesons is studied in a simple quark-gluon picture. We find that both the splitting of from and the departure of from are due to annihilation forces. Mass formulas which describe the masses in a nonet in terms of two parameters are derived and found to be in good agreement with observed masses for the , , and nonets.
