Suppose you have two bottles, labeled ketone A and ketone B. You know that one bottle contains CH3CO(CH2)5CH3 and one contains CH3CH2CO(CH2)4CH3, but you do not know which ketone is in which bottle. Ketone A gives a fragment at m/z = 99 and ketone B gives a fragment at m/z = 113. What are the likely structures of ketones A and B from these fragmentation data?
If a non-cyclic alkane shows a molecular ion peak at m/z 408, what is the chemical formula? Complete the formula: C,H, carbon atoms y 3= hydrogen atoms
