Study Notes
- Mass spectrometry determines molecular weight and composition of molecules
- It is widely used in chemistry, biology, and material science
- The process involves ionization of molecules using various methods
- Separation of ions is done based on mass-to-charge ratio using a mass analyzer
- Detection of ions is done using a detector, resulting in a mass spectrum
- Choice of ionization method depends on molecule being analyzed and sensitivity required
- Mass analyzer can be designed using magnetic fields, electric fields, or time-of-flight
- Detector can be a Faraday cup or an electron multiplier
- Mass spectrometry is a powerful analytical tool that has revolutionized many fields
- It provides information about molecular weight and chemical composition of sample.
