GC-MS
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| methods for sample intro: | 1. Batch lnlet 2. Direct Probe 3. Chromatograph- Gc C & LC 4. Plasmas- ICP& MIP |
| interfacing GC to a MS depends on | the type of column that is being used |
| What is necessary to do if megaprobe or a standard packed column is used and how it is accomplished? | remove the bulk of the mobile phase b4 introducing the analyte into MS. accomplished bu using "jet separator" |
| Methods of ionization in ionization chamber | 1. Gas-phase sources: sample is vaporized and then ionized. Used for thermally-stable species 2. Desorption sources: sample (liquid or solid) . used for non-volatile and thermally unstable species |
| Several methods for ionization: | 1. Electron-impact source(El) 2. Chemical lionization source(Cl) 3. Field lonization source(F l) 4. Desorption sources |
| Electron-impact source(El) | advantages: convenient to use; good sensitivity; good sensitivity; extensive fragmentation. Disadvantages: no molecular ion. limited sample : Molecular mass and boiling point |
| Mass analyzer: | 1. Magnetic sector 2.double focusing 3. Time-of-flight 4.Quadrupole. |
| detectors: | 1. Faraday Cup 2. Electron Multiplier 3.Photographic Plate 4. Scintillation-type |
| types of electron multiplier | 1.discrete dynode type 2.continuous dynode type |
| Does path depend on the kinetic energy or angular momentum of ions in quadruple mass ionizer? | NO- highr throuput of ions |
