Question
Chapter 5, Problem 53RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The two principal types of mass spectrometry are to be defined.
Concept Information:
Mass spectrometry (MS) is the technique used in the separation of fragments of molecules according to the ratio of their mass (m) to charge (z), or m/z, ratio. This m/z ratio is used for getting information about the molecule’s structural and chemical properties, which then are used for identifying the molecule separated.
