MCQ
In a Bainbridge mass spectrometer positive rays of the same element produce different traces. The traces correspond to:
- ✓Isotopes
- BIsobars
- CIsotones
- DNone of the above
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Isotopes
In a Bainbridge mass spectrometer positive rays of the same element produce different traces. The traces correspond to isotopes. Isotopes are atoms of same element. They have same atomic number $($nuclear charge$)$ but different mass number $($number of neutrons$)$. Positive rays $($or anode rays or canal rays$)$ contains ions obtained by knocking out electrons from gaseous atoms.
