Chapter 8, Problem 8.7QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A continuous and a discrete atomizer used in atomic spectrometry should be named and the difference in output signals for each from a spectrometer should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Spectral lines are lines which help in identifying the atoms and molecules. These are a result of absorption or emission of light in a comparatively narrower frequency range compared to the frequencies nearby.
Atomization refers to the separation of substance particles into separate molecules because of high-temperature treatment and breaking of these molecules into atoms.

- Bromine has two naturally occuring isotopes, Br-79 and Br-81, approximately 50% of each. Bromomethane will contain approximately 50% Br-79 and 50% Br-81. The mass spectrum peak for methane containing Br-79 will be referred to as the M+ (molecular ion) peak, and the peak for Br-81 will be called the M+2 peak, as Br-81 weighs two more amu than Br-79.
