The mass spectrum of bromine (Br2) consists of three peaks with the following characteristics:
| Mass (u) | Relative Size |
| 157.84 | 0.2534 |
| 159.84 | 0.5000 |
| 161.84 | 0.2466 |
How do you interpret these data?
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The mass spectrum of Bromine
Concept introduction: The spectrum used to compare the masses of atoms is called mass spectrum.
