MCAT Question of the Day


  • Q:

    In mass spectrometry, two ions will be depicted as a single peak if which of the following is true?

     

    A

    One ion has a mass of M and a charge of Z and the other ion has a mass of 2M and a charge of 2Z

    B

    One ion has a mass of M and a charge of Z and the other ion has a mass of 2M and a charge of Z/2

    C

    One ion has a mass of M and a charge of Z and the other ion has a mass of M/2 and a charge of Z

    D

    Two ions will occupy the same peak so long as they are fragments of the same original molecule.
