In a typical mass spectrum, a smaller signal is observed at a mass 1 amu higher than the molecular ion peak. Why

Chemistry

Answer:

Answer is explained below in the explanation section

Explanation:

Smaller signal is observed at a mass 1 amu because small percentage of the compound will have carbon isotope of 13C instead of 12C.

As we know, mass spectrometry is done as a small compound is first vaporized and then bombarded to ionize it. And then, those ions are accelerated forward and then at some point ions are separated and deflected by the application of magnetic field.

And finally hits the detector to give us a spectrum to read. So, in this whole procedure, there can be a small percentage of carbon isotope of 13C instead of 12C in that compound and showed in the spectrum as a smaller signal at a mass 1 amu.

What is the definition of Indirect Proportion Graph?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The graph of an inversely proportional relationship displays a vertical asymptote at the y-axis as the y value increases without bound as x gets closer and closer to zero (but is positive) and decreases without bound as x gets closer and closer to zero (but is negative)and a horizontal asymptote at the x-axis as y gets .

NH3 (g) + HCl (g) + NH4Cl (s)<br> What type of reaction does this equation represent?
kogti [31]

Answer:

Synthesis

Explanation:

Reaction Given:

        NH₃+ HCI ------> NH₄Cl

Type of reaction = ?

Solution:

Look at the reactants and products of the reaction to know the type of reaction

          NH₃+ HCI ------> NH₄Cl

In this reaction two reactant combine and give 1 products.

Reactant of the reaction

NH₃ = Ammonia

HCl = Hydrochloric acid

Product of the reaction

NH₄Cl = Ammonium chloride

So,

That ammonia (NH₃) react with Hydrochloric acid (HCl) and produces salt.

in this reaction NH₃ is a week base and take a proton from HCl and form ammonium ion and Cl ion. these two ions in combine form gives a salt called ammonium chloride.  

Type of Reaction:

This is type of synthesis reaction, in which NH₃ and HCl combine and form a new compound that is ammonium chloride salt (NH₄Cl). As the synthesis reaction is that reaction in which two are more compounds or molecules combine and form a new compound.
