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.

Question

Identify two peaks that are expected to appear in the mass spectrum of 3-pentanol. For each peak, identify the fragment associated with the peak.
