What does a mass spectrometer actually measure?
Answer: A
Every analyser separates ions by the ratio of mass to charge, so a doubly charged ion of mass two hundred appears at a hundred. Molecular weight follows only once the charge is known, atom counts are inferred from the pattern, and ionisation energy is a separate quantity. That the axis is a ratio rather than a mass is what makes multiply charged ions both a complication and, in protein work, an opportunity. Most errors here come from carrying a result across from a neighbouring case where it does not hold.
