Q

what is relative isotopic mass

A

the mass of an isotope relative to 1/12th of the mass of an atom of carbon-12

17
Q

what is relative atomic mass

A

relative atomic mass is the weighted mean mass of an atom of an element relative to 1/12th of the mass of an atom of carbon -12

18
Q

What can a mass spectrometer be used for?

A

Determine the accurate relative atomic mass of an element and also find the abundance of or mass of isotopes present in a sample

19
Q

what are the stages of a mass spectrometer

A

ionisation , acceleration , ion drift , detection

20
Q

what is the electron gun ionisation used for?

A

elements and low Mr compounds

21
Q

what is electrospray ionisation used for?

A

used for high MR compounds eg proteins

22
Q

which ions reach the detector first and why ?

A

the lighter ions reach the detector first because they travel faster than heavier ones as they are lighter. they have the same kinetic energy.
