Mass spectrometry is an extremely versatile detection system for GC. However, interfacing an HPLC system to a mass spectrometer is a much more difficult task. Describe the major reasons why it is more difficult to combine HPLC with mass spectrometry than it is to combine GC with mass spectrometry.

13. Electrospray time-of-flight mass spectrometry was used to analyze the eluate from a high-performance liquid chromatography separation. The mass spectrum of one chromatographic peak, containing a protein of unknown molecular mass, displays MH peaks at m/z = 5 654.208, 5 277.326, 4 947.590, 4 656.613, 4 397.990, and 4 166.576. Find the average molecular mass (M) of the neutral protein and its standard deviation.
A student researcher performed a chromatographic separation of caffeine and aspartame. The retention time for caffeine, te, was found to be 200.8 s with a baseline peak width, we, of 16.1 s. The retention time for aspartame, ta, was 258.7 s with a baseline peak width, wa, of 20.6 s. The retention time for the unretained solvent methanol was 44.2 s.
