Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.72QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The temperature given in degree Celsius for the boiling point of liquid oxygen has to be converted to Fahrenheit.
Concept Introduction:
Fahrenheit, Kelvin and degree Celsius are three representation of the temperature. If we know the temperature in degree Celsius, then the temperature in Fahrenheit and kelvin can be calculated and vice-versa. The formula used for conversion of degree Celsius to Fahrenheit is,

- 1. Calculate the accurate monoisotopic mass (using all 1H, 12C, 14N, 160 and 35CI) for your product using the table in your lab manual. Don't include the Cl, since you should only have [M+H]*. Compare this to the value you see on the LC-MS printout. How much different are they? 2. There are four isotopic peaks for the [M+H]* ion at m/z 240, 241, 242 and 243. For one point of extra credit, explain what each of these is and why they are present. 3. There is a fragment ion at m/z 184. For one point of extra credit, identify this fragment and confirm by calculating the accurate monoisotopic mass. 4. The UV spectrum is also at the bottom of your printout. For one point of extra credit, look up the UV spectrum of bupropion on Google Images and compare to your spectrum. Do they match? Cite your source. 5.
