oil rig
oxidation is loss, reduction is gain [of electrons]
mass defect
the strong forces holding neutrons and electrons comes at the expense of the loss of mass {mass is lost to hold nucleus}
standard isotope
base all atomic masses on - carbon 12
mass spectrometer finds
the percentage abundances of in a sample of an element
mass spec method
sample is vaporised/ ionised to get positive ions, the ions are accelerated. heavier ions move slower and are harder to deflect so they are separated, depicted as mass to charge ratio. each ion reading adds to signal, greater abundance = greater signal
mass spec equation
mass/charge of ion
for an ion with one positive charge- m/z ratio
ratio is equivalent to the relative isotopic mass
metals on the left side of the periodic table (electrons )
lose electrons, to form cations
non- metals on the right side of the periodic table (electrons)
gain electrons, to form anions
