Q

How does the ionisation stage within the mass spectrometer work?

Just think of the information that we have - for example, if it’s asking us to calculate the mass with data on the moles, use the molar mass equations, but if we’re given the volume, we need to use the molar volume equation for the amount of moles and then use the molar mass equations to go back to the mass - I’ve made it sound really confusing.
