Mass Spectrometry Fragmentation

ICP-MS is used to identify >90% of the elements in the periodic table with low detection limits, high degree of selectivity, good precision, and accuracy. The ICP Torch is used to form, shape, and sustain an argon plasma which atomizes and ionizes the ______.

The high temperature in the ICP Torch leads to more complete atomization where the sample is broken down into its elements through hard ______.

Laser ablation allows for solid sample introduction with minimal preparation as high intensity radiation rapidly vaporizes most ______.

The flow of argon carries the vaporized sample into the ICP torch where it can be used on samples to decompose or ______.

Molecular Mass Spectrometry is the most widely applicable analytical tool and can be used for elemental composition of inorganic, organic, and biological ______.

The Ionization source in Molecular Mass Spectrometry generates a molecular ion in which the original molecule loses one electron but still has the same molecular ______.

Chap 20 Molecular Mass Spec provides the structure and composition of solid surfaces and the quantitative and qualitative composition of complex ______.

The Spectrum in Molecular Mass Spec provides an isotopic ratio of atoms in the ______.

ICP-MS has a mass range of 3-300, detection limit range at 0.1-10ppb, resolves ion differing by m/z of 1, and has a dynamic range of six orders of ______.

Laser ablation beam can be directed to a specific location on the ______.
