Molecules are converted to gas-phase ions so that they can be moved about and manipulated by external electric and magnetic fields. How does a mass spectrometer perform such a feat? Every mass spectrometer consists of at least these three components: These measurements can often be used to calculate the exact molecular weight of the sample components as well. Typically, mass spectrometers can be used to identify unknown compounds via molecular weight determination, to quantify known compounds, and to determine structure and chemical properties of molecules. Mass spectrometry is an analytical tool useful for measuring the mass-to-charge ratio ( m/z) of one or more molecules present in a sample.
