Concept explainers

Mass Spectrometry

This process is an instrumental method in which a sample is changed to fast moving positive ions by electron bombardment. The charged particles vary due to their different mass to charge ratio and are estimated with the help of this difference. It is also called mass spectroscopy.

Mass spectrometry is an extremely versatile detection system for GC. However, interfacing an HPLC system to a mass spectrometer is a much more difficult task. Describe the major reasons why it is more difficult to combine HPLC with mass spectrometry than it is to combine GC with mass spectrometry.
Explain in detail the advantages in the use of tandem mass spectrometry by referring to the analysis of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) with electrospray mass spectrometry combined with chromatography
I extracted caffeine by using chloroform and magnesium sulfate to dehydrate the organic phase. I got crude caffeine just by solvent evaporation at room temperature. However, I wanted to conduct Raman spectroscopy measurements but I did not get the characteristic peaks. I think that it has to be whit chloroform presence. So I let the crude caffeine 24h at 65 degrees but still I did not get any peak. What can I use to rinse my crude caffeine extract to remove all chloroform molecules? Or what is wrong with my extraction?

(a) Three components in a mixture have varying distribution constants between the mobile phase and the stationary phase. One of the components has a very high distribution constant. Would this component likely elute first or last and how would you design an experiment or modify the components of the separation to make it perform in the opposite manner? (b) One way to dramatically increase the sensitivity of a quadrupole mass spectrometer is to use a technique called selected ion monitoring (SIM). Explain how this technique works and why it improves sensitivity. Explain what dwell time means. Be sure to draw a diagram and describe how this analysis scheme works. Also, is there a compromise between a wide range of masses scanned and SIM? Explain in easy details.
