So that all of the atoms can travel at the same speed
Question 2
Question
Atoms are ionised after they are dissolved in a [blank_start]polar[blank_end] solvent. They are then pushed through a nozzle at a [blank_start]high[blank_end] speed. Once they are ionised, the sample then consists of [blank_start]positive[blank_end] ions.
Answer
non-polar
polar
positive
neutral
high
low
normal
electrical
negative
positive
Question 3
Question
What happens during acceleration?
Answer
An electric field accelerates positive ions
Electricity accelerates negative ions
Ions move at a constant speed
Ions are given the same kinetic energy
Question 4
Question
Ions leave the electric field with a constant speed and a constant kinetic energy.
Answer
True
False
Question 5
Question
During ion drift, the region that the ions enter has [blank_start]no[blank_end] electric field and they drift through this at [blank_start]the same[blank_end] speed after acceleration.
Answer
no
some
a positive
a negative
a lot of
a higher
a lower
the same
Question 6
Question
Ions must be charged in order for them to be accelerated.
