Determine the isotopes involved: The mass spectrum peaks suggest the presence of two isotopes of bromine, typically Br-79 and Br-81.
Identify the molecular combinations: The peaks correspond to Br-79/Br-79, Br-79/Br-81, and Br-81/Br-81.
Assign the m/z values to these combinations: 157.836 for Br-79/Br-79, 159.834 for Br-79/Br-81, and 161.832 for Br-81/Br-81.
Calculate the average molecular mass: Use the relative peak intensities as weights to find the weighted average of the molecular masses.
Apply the formula: Average molecular mass = (157.836 * 0.2569) + (159.834 * 0.4999) + (161.832 * 0.2431).

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Isotopes

Isotopes are variants of a chemical element that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons, resulting in different atomic masses. For bromine, the two stable isotopes are bromine-79 and bromine-81. Understanding isotopes is crucial for calculating average atomic masses, as the relative abundance of each isotope affects the overall mass of the element.

Mass Spectrum

A mass spectrum is a graphical representation of the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of ions, which helps identify the composition of a sample. Each peak in the spectrum corresponds to a specific ion, with its height indicating the relative abundance of that ion. Analyzing the mass spectrum of bromine allows us to determine the contributions of its isotopes to the average molecular mass.

Average Molecular Mass

The average molecular mass of a compound is calculated by taking the weighted average of the masses of its isotopes, based on their relative abundances. This involves multiplying the mass of each isotope by its relative peak intensity from the mass spectrum and summing these products. This concept is essential for understanding the overall mass of molecules in elemental bromine.
