16 A carbonyl compound has a molecular ion with a m/z of 86. The mass spectra of this compound also has a base peak with a m/z of 57. Draw the correct structure of this molecule.**Explanation:**- **Molecular ion (m/z 86):** This represents the total mass-to-charge ratio of the compound before it breaks into fragments. It provides a clue to the overall molecular weight of the compound.- **Base peak (m/z 57):** This is the most intense peak in the mass spectrum, indicating the most stable ion fragment formed during the process. To address this challenge, knowledge of mass spectrometry fragmentation patterns and typical carbonyl compound structures is needed to propose a molecular structure that fits these specific m/z values.
