Why is it important for solutions to be diluted before they are run through spectroscopy?

Model 3: Ionization and Fragmentation Most mass spectrometers accelerate a molecule by first turning it into an ion, then using an electric field to accelerate it toward the detector. During standard ionization, a molecule loses one electron, the electron that is easiest to remove. The following is a hierarchy of electrons from easiest to hardest to remove: Electron in a lone pair (easiest) Electron that is part of a double bond (pi bond) Electron in a single bond (hardest) Knocking off an electron to make a +1 ion can be a harsh process. This harsh treatment often results in a broken bond, generating two smaller pieces, a +1 ion and a neutral fragment. (Note that only the ion is accelerated and detected.) ● 7. ● Critical Thinking Questions 6. If acetone is ionized, which electron is most likely to be knocked off? Replace this electron with a + (to indicate the missing electron) on the structure of acetone → The ion you drew above is called the "molecular ion" of acetone. It is…
