Calculate m/z Value



Formula

The formula to calculate the m/z value is:

\[ \frac{M}{Z} \]

Where:

What is an m/z Value?

The m/z value is a dimensionless quantity that represents the mass-to-charge ratio of an ion. It is a fundamental parameter in mass spectrometry, which is a technique used to measure the masses of particles, the elemental composition of a sample, and the chemical structures of molecules. The m/z value helps in identifying and quantifying molecules in a sample.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \frac{1000}{2} = 500 \]

The m/z Value is 500.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \frac{1500}{3} = 500 \]

The m/z Value is 500.
