18
Q

why is the sample held within a vacuum

A

so that arent react with the gases in the atmosphere.

19
Q

what occurs during ionisation. (TOF)

A

converts the atoms to positive ions by knocking off an electron.

20
Q

what is electrospray ionisation?

A

sample is placed in a volatile solvent
is forced through a fine needle: giving fine mist/aeorsal
tip of needle has high voltage
sample gains a proton H+

21
Q

what is electron impact?

A

electron gun forces high energy electron towards sample
knocks out an electron
forms positive ion

22
Q

what is the general formula of an atom losing an electron
1st ionisation energy

A

X(g)–> X+(g) + e-

23
Q

what happens when the ions are attracted to negatively charged plate?

A

they accelerate towards the plate

24
Q

what is the kinetic energy of the ions

A

it is constant.

25
Q

will smaller ions have a greater speed

A

yes

26
Q

what is speed of the ions in the ion drift?

A

smaller ions move faster
larger ions move slower

27
Q

what occurs during ion detection?

A

the ions pick up an electron
which causes a current to flow

28
Q

what does the flow of current represent?

A

size of current is proportional to the abundance of the isotope

29
Q

what happens when a molecule interacts with electron impact?

A

causes fragmentation

30
Q

what is the mass spectrometer used for?

A

relative abundance of isotopes
relative isotopic mass

31
Q

how can we find the relative isotopic mass

A

isotopic mass*relative abundance / total relative abundance

32
Q

what are the names of the sub shells/ orbitals

A

s,p,d,f

33
Q

how many electrons does a s-orbital hold?

A

2

34
Q

how many electrons does the p orbital hold

A

6

35
Q

how many electrons does the d orbital hold?

A

10

36
Q

what is the first ionisation energy?

A

energy required to remove 1 mole of an electron from a mole of atoms in its gaseous state
measured in kJ/mol

37
Q

what is an example of the 2nd ionisation energy?

A

X+ –> X2+ +2e-

38
Q

what factors affect ionisation energy?

A

nuclear charge
atomic radius
shielding

39
Q

what is the trend in ionisation energy in period 3

A

increases
-across the group nuclear charge increases (proton no. IN)
-electrons have greater attraction to +ve nucleus
-decreases atomic radius
-same orbitals

40
Q

how does sulfur deviate from the trend in ionisation energy?

A

DECREASES
electrons are paired in the same p orbital
repulsion between them
less energy required to break forces

41
Q

what is the trend in first ionisation energies as you go down the group?

A

DECREASES
atomic radius increases
outermost electron further away from nucleus
more shielding
weaker attraction to nucleus.

42
Q

what is the relative atomic mass

A

the average mass of an atom compared to 1/12 of the mass of the atom carbon.

43
Q

in what ways are isotopes the same?

A

same electronic configuration.
