Q
Q: In mass spectrometry, what does the term 'm/z' represent?
Solution:
The term 'm/z' represents the mass to charge ratio of ions detected in mass spectrometry.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that mass spectrometry is a technique used to measure the mass of ions.
Step 2: Know that ions are charged particles, which means they have an electric charge.
Step 3: The term 'm/z' stands for mass to charge ratio.
Step 4: 'm' represents the mass of the ion, and 'z' represents the charge of the ion.
Step 5: To find 'm/z', you divide the mass of the ion by its charge.
Step 6: This ratio helps scientists identify and analyze different ions in a sample.
