Mass spectroscopy can be used for a series of applications, ranging from the determination of chemical elements and chemical compounds in all kinds of samples to the investigation of reactions and interactions of DNA with other substances. As in mass spectroscopy you detect chemical substances based on the ratio between their masses and the charges (only ions can be detected), a wide range of information can be obtained usually with only very low amounts of the substance that you want to investigate.

How are balance and mass related?
A balance is used to measure the mass of an object.
What unit are used for mass?
the unit used for mass in density
What is the difference between cosy and noesy?
NOESY Nuclear Overhauser Effect SpectroscopyCorrelation spectroscopy (COSY)
What is the mass of a 145 pounds?
Pounds are also used to measure mass, so =145 pounds
What do you use to compare the mass of two different objects?
a triple beam balance can be used to measure mass. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- In a laboratory analytical balances are used. The type of balance depends on the mass to be measured.
What are 5 methods of analysis in chemistry?
Mass spectrometry, UV/Vis spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy CNMR spectroscopy, Infra red spectroscopy
Advantages of Mass spectroscopy?
Mass spectroscopy is a highly sensitive technique that can accurately determine the molecular weight of a compound. It can provide information about the chemical structure and composition of a sample. Mass spectroscopy is also versatile and can be used in various fields like chemistry, biology, and environmental science.
Why is now mass spectroscopy used instead of radiocarbon dating?
Mass spectrometry has not replaced radiocarbon dating, it is used as a better way to measure the amount of carbon-14 in the sample that permits smaller sample sizes and improved accuracy.
When is flame emission spectroscopy used?
It can be used for element identification and can used in Atomic spectroscopy and can be used to help "atoms with low ionization potentials become ionized."
What are the differences among X ray Nuclear Mass Resonance Spectroscopy and Mass spectroscopy?
Everything. About the only thing they have in common is "you learn about them in analytical chemistry class."Except "Nuclear Mass Resonance Spectroscopy", which doesn't exist and I assume is an error that should have read "Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy".X-Ray spectroscopy gives you the conformation in a fairly direct (okay, it's actually not all that direct) manner.NMR spectroscopy mainly gives you chemical structure information; you can finesse it a bit (NOESY and related techniques) to give some conformational information.Mass spectroscopy is pretty much chemical structure only (and, again, it's not all that direct, it just tells you what fragments the molecule breaks apart into; figuring out how they fit together is your problem).
What is collisionally activated dissociation tandem mass spectroscopy?
The goal of mass spectrometry is to determine the structure of a compound. With activated dissociation tandem mass spectrometry, two or more detectors are used to look at the breakdown of a compound triggered by introducing radiation into the crucible.
What is apparatus used in x-ray spectroscopy?
X-ray spectroscopy is used for detecting of breakable bone in body(2)it also for internal structures
What is stellar spectroscopy used for?
The purpose of stellar spectroscopy is to determine the chemical composition of stars, the temperature and some other characteristcs..
How the method is used stellar spectroscopy?
The method is the spectrography.
Is Raman spectroscopy is emmission spectroscopy?
no,it is reflection spectroscopy
Which radiation is used in fluorescence spectroscopy?
Ultraviolet Electromagnetic Radiation
What is massspectroscopy?
mass spectrometry, also called mass spectroscopy, analytic technique by which chemical substances are identified by the sorting of gaseous ions in electric and magnetic fields according to their mass-to-charge ratios.
