Lesson: Fragment Ions Chemistry

In this lesson, we will learn how to analyze mass spectra to identify the likely composition of the fragment ions produced from an analyte.

Lesson Worksheet

Q1:

What does the presence of M-15, M-29, and M-43 mass spectral peaks correspond to?

Q2:

When the molecular ion is absent, which fragment ion peaks are aliphatic nitro compounds indicated by?
