Q

What’s the equation for concentration?

A

n=cv

17
Q

What occurs if a 2+ ion is produced in a mass spectra?

A

M/z halfed

Abundance the same

18
Q

Describe how a mass spectra works

A

Substance vaporised

Ionised by bombarding with electrons

Accelerated and deflected using magnetic or electric fields

Heavier = Larger radius of curve

Dectector records m/z and abundance

19
Q

What ions must be produced in a mass spectrometer?

A

Positive

20
Q

What is the mass of an electron?

A

1/1836

21
Q

Why do isotopes have the same chemical properties as atoms of the same element?

A

Chemical properties are due to electronic structure which is the Same in both

22
Q

Why do isotopes have different physical properties to atoms of the same element?

A

Different mass numbers

So different densities and BP

23
Q

State whether the physical and chemical properties of atoms and isotopes of the same element are the same or different

A

Physical= different (different mass number (so density))

Chemical = same (same electronic structure)

24
Q

Compare molecular and formula mass

A

Molecular= small molecules

Formula= Larger molecules

25
Q

What goes of the axis of a mass spectra?

A

X= m/z (mass : charge)

Y= % abundance

26
Q

Compare the flight of heavy and light ions in a mass spectrometer

A

Heavy = Larger radius and longer flight time
