Answer:
There will be 3 peaks.
Relative height of the atomic peaks would be; 158, 160 and 162
Explanation:
We are told that Bromine has two isotopes namely 79Br and 81Br in a 1 : 1 ratio (50 : 50).
This means that a compound which contains 1 bromine atom will have two peaks in the molecular ion region but it depends on which bromine isotope is contained in the molecular ion.
Thus;
Relative height of atomic peaks is given by;
m/z = 79Br¯ 79Br+ = 158
79Br¯ 81Br+ = 160
81Br¯ 81Br+ = 162
We are asked to solve for the arc length of the intercepted arc and the formula is shown below:
Arc length = 2*pi*r(central angle/360°)
r = 5 feet
central angle = 10°
Solving for the arc length, we have:
Arc length = 2*3.14*5 (10/360)
Arc length = 0.872 feet
The arc length is 0.872 feet.
