Propose a molecular formula for a compound that exhibits the given peaks in its mass spectrum. Draw a possible structure. M*• at m/z = 136, relative height = 12.1% (M+1)*• at m/z = 137, relative height = 1.2%
Which one is the incorrect statement regarding mass spectrum? Question 25 options: In case of alcohols, M-18 peak is produced due to the loss of neutral H2O molecule (Dehydration) The relative heights of (M)+• peak and (M+1)+• peak is used to calculate the number of carbon atoms The structure likely contains a bromine atom if the (M+2)+• peak and (M)+• are almost similar in heights The molecular ion peak (M)+• always represent the base peak The structure likely contains a chlorine atom if the (M+2)+• peak is approximately one-third as tall as (M)+•
▪ True or False: Mass spectra are like a fingerprint. Every compound has a unique one. ▪ Which mode of GCMS operation has more sensitivity and why? A) SIM. More time at each m/z ▪ B) Full Scan. More time at each m/z ▪ C) SIM. Less time at each m/z
1. Draw all possible isomers for the molecular formula C6H14 Next predict mass spectra of all isomers and explain how you would use mass spectra to identify each of the isomers.
Draw the structure of the compound to its matching spectrum. Mark the peaks on the spectra that helped you pick that compound.
