6. How are ions accelerated?
- + ions attracted to - plates; pass through slits between plates
- Pushed by electricity
- Shot by the electron gun
- Propelled by kinetic energy
7. Why does the sample need to be ionized?
- So particles can be accelerated and deflected
- So particles can be made lighter
- So particles can only be accelerated
- So particles can only be deflected
8. How are the ions detected?
- Radiograph
- Negatively charged plate
- Scientist determines the resulsts
- Analysis machine
9. What does the mass spectrometery machine do?
- Analyses element samples
- Interprets graphs
- Analyses wavelengths
- Interprets vibrations
10. What state must the sample be in?
- Liquid
- Gaseous
- Solid
- Aqueous
11. What is the rule of thumb about ion movement?
- Move in a straight line unless a force is applied
- Gradually become slower over distances
- Will continually spread out
- Able to take bends
12. A current is produced when the ion hits the plate. The more hits the..?
- Stronger the line on graph
- More lines are drawn
- Bigger the current
- Clearer the results
13. What affects how the ions will be deflected
- Just the charge
- Mass to charge ratio
- Just the mass
- The number of type of that ion
