Chapter 9, Problem 33P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of the fragment ions of 4-methyl-2-pentanone and its m/z  value is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Mass spectrometry is a technique used for measuring the masses of atoms and molecules with great accuracy.

In a mass spectrometer, the vapor of an organic compound is bombarded with a beam of high energy electrons that makes the neutral molecule loose an electron and get converted to a radical cation, known as molecular ion.
