  • 009 - Mass Spectrometry
    In this video Paul Andersen explains how a spectrometer was used to identify the presence of isotopes. This modified Dalton's original atomic theory because atoms of the same element had different masses. The functional parts of a mass spectrometer are detailed including the ionizer, mass analyzer and the detector. A simulation of Chlorine isotopes along with an average atomic mass calculation is included.

    Wow, you've taken something that I assume is incredibly complex, explained it in 8 minutes and I actually understood it.
    And I sucked at chemistry.

      Don't forget to find a way to test your knowledge and check your understanding, even if you don't like school.

      Science isn't hard. It, like math, depends on the educator. Most educators suck. Especially people who call themselves 'science communicators' (see: twenty something 'camera ready' girls who are barely undergrad's on buzzfeed like channels who wear t-shirts that read 'i fucking love science' or something along those lines. They're as negligent as the old uppity teacher who thought the class was hopeless and didn't try, because unlike them they assume the entire class is mentally retarded and needs babyspeak.) People like this guy just explain shit the way it is, and if things are explained in a straight forward way there's no reason to not understand them!

  • @rustyjeanz
    @rustyjeanz Před 8 lety +2

    Very nice. God Bless you for your teaching. I got a question.So how the abundance was calculated? It has to be in the formula. So what is the way to calculating that. Thanks

    • @yosimba2000
      @yosimba2000 Před 8 lety

      +rustyjeanz Abundance is just the fraction of that specific isotope from all atoms of that element.
      So say you have 10 atoms of Chlorine. Of these 10 Chlorine atoms, 7 of them have atomic weight of 35, and 3 of them have atomic weight of 37.
      So the abundance of Chlorine 35 is just # of Chlorine 35/ All Chlorine, which is 7/10 = 0.7, which is your abundance.
      For Chlorine 37, the abundance is 3/10 = 0.3
      Notice the abundance is essentially just the chance of getting that type of atom. You have 0.7, or 70% chance to get Chlorine 35, and 0.3 or 30%, to get Chlorine 37.
      Percent chance * Weight + Percent chance * Weight is what is called the Expected Value in statistics, which gives the average value of a Chlorine atom.

  • @aba1usa
    @aba1usa Před 9 lety +13

    He makes it very simple. That is good. I guess it is intended to school kids. But what is said should be technically correct.
    A total vacuum cannot be achieved with the pumps we have. In any case, we don’t need a total vacuum.
    As he said there are three parts in mass spectrometer (agreed)
    But ionizer need not be in a vacuum always. In most modern instruments the ionization is done at atmospheric pressure.
    We not “hit” gaseous samples with electrons. Electron beam is produced from a thermally heated filament not a cathode ray tube (which is a discharge tube).
    Detector. The first hit is an ion, not an electron. Moreover, an electron multiplier as described cannot be used detect ions hitting the detector at different locations.
    He is not making a clear distinction between tuning and calibration. Getting the ion to the detector is “tuning” not “calibration.” For calibration we have to introduce a compound (a calibrant) with known masses of the ions it generates.
    He still uses amu scale, which based on oxygen (IUPAC recommended the use of 12C scale in 1961). The x axis is labeled as atomic weight. It should be m/z.
    The spectrum he shows is not spectrum of myoglobin. Mass of myoglobin is about 17,000 u. He shows a peak and says it has more of that amino acid. The spectrum he shows is taken from an enzyme digest of myoglobin. The peaks shown are for peptides and not for amino acids.

    • @TheSalamazZ

      the solid or liquid samples must be vaporized in order to go in the mass spectrometer, so yes liquid and solid samples are acceptable as long as they are in the gaseous state.

    How do you know how many electrons are lost from each atom in the ionizer? Is this always the same for a given isotope or is there some random element, say the number of electrons that happen to collide with a given atom? I would think that if, say, some chlorine 35 atoms lost one electron and some lost two, then chlorine 35 could give you two peaks rather than one, complicating matters.
