Question 1.
Define concentration.
Show hintHide hint
Think about how much solute is present in a solution.
Question 2.
What is mass?
Show hintHide hint
Consider how mass is measured.
3Question 3.
What is calibration based on?
- Mass
- Concentration
- Both
Show hintHide hint
Consider what remains consistent during analysis.
4Question 4.
True or False: In SCAN mode, only specific ions are monitored.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on the breadth of analysis in SCAN mode.
Question 5.
An analyst observes that their calibration curve has a steep slope but a high intercept. What does this indicate, and how should they proceed?
Show hintHide hint
Consider how the intercept relates to reliable versus unreliable measurements.
Question 6.
During a gas chromatography experiment, a student switches from SCAN to SIM mode and notices improvements in the detection of low concentration compounds. Explain this phenomenon.
Show hintHide hint
Think about how focusing on fewer signals aids in detection.
