Question

basic principles of mass spectroscopy ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Basic Principle

A mass spectrometer generates multiple ions from the sample under investigation, it then separates them according to their specific mass-to-charge ratio (m/z), and then records the relative abundance of each ion type. ... A mass spectrum of the molecule is thus produced.

Answer 2

A mass spectrometer produces charged particles (ions) from the chemical substances that are to be analyzed. The mass spectrometer then uses electric and magnetic fields to measure the mass ("weight") of the charged particles.
