Yes.
No, it has the wrong number of valence electrons.
The correct number is:
No, it has the right number of valence electrons but doesn't satisfy the
octet rule.
The symbols of the problem atoms are:* |
If two or more atoms of the same element don't satisfy the octet rule, just enter the chemical symbol as many
times as necessary. For example, if two oxygen atoms don't satisfy the octet rule, enter "0,0".

- 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.
