Question 1

Question
Why are samples ionised?
Answer
  • To lose a proton
  • To create positive ions
  • So the ions can be accelerated
  • So that all of the atoms can travel at the same speed

Question 2

Question
Atoms are ionised after they are dissolved in a [blank_start]polar[blank_end] solvent. They are then pushed through a nozzle at a [blank_start]high[blank_end] speed. Once they are ionised, the sample then consists of [blank_start]positive[blank_end] ions.
Answer
  • non-polar
  • polar
  • positive
  • neutral
  • high
  • low
  • normal
  • electrical
  • negative
  • positive

Question 3

Question
What happens during acceleration?
Answer
  • An electric field accelerates positive ions
  • Electricity accelerates negative ions
  • Ions move at a constant speed
  • Ions are given the same kinetic energy

Question 4

Question
Ions leave the electric field with a constant speed and a constant kinetic energy.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 5

Question
During ion drift, the region that the ions enter has [blank_start]no[blank_end] electric field and they drift through this at [blank_start]the same[blank_end] speed after acceleration.
Answer
  • no
  • some
  • a positive
  • a negative
  • a lot of
  • a higher
  • a lower
  • the same

Question 6

Question
Ions must be charged in order for them to be accelerated.
Answer
  • True
  • False
