Mass spectrum of Dodecane will give following information.

1 ) Molecular Peak or Parent Peak:
                                                       The Parent peak will appear at m/z = 170. The intensity of this peak will be very weak.

2) Fragments:
                      Usually the fragments of such long chain alkanes appear with spacing of 14 amu, Hence, the peaks in dodecane will be as follow,

         170 - 156 - 142 - 128 - 114 - 100 - 86 - 72 - 58 - 44 - 30 - 16

3) Base Peak:
                     Most probably the Base peak will appear at m/z = 57. This peak is due to the formation of tertiary butyl cation as the intensity mainly depends upon the stability of cation. So this cation might form due to rearrangment giving the intensity of 100%.

Eddi Din [679]

Making moral judgments or decisions is not a characteristic of science.

<h3>The scientific method</h3>

The scientific method refers to systematic methods employed by scientists in their quest for discoveries and explanation of phenomena.

The scientific method includes:

  • Observation and formulation of questions
  • Developing a hypothesis
  • Conducting experiments
  • Formulation of theories based on experiments
  • Conducting further experiments and research
  • Formulation of laws.

Thus, the characteristics of science include:

  • relies on evidence
  • uses testable ideas
  • leads to ongoing research

Therefore, making moral judgments or decisions is not a characteristic of science.
