In a Mass Spectrometer, Chlorine Ions of Mass 35u and 37u

Question 41

Multiple Choice

In a mass spectrometer, chlorine ions of mass 35u and 37u, each with charge +5e, are emitted from a source and accelerated through a potential difference of 300 kV. They then enter at the same point) a region with a magnetic field of 0.20 T that is perpendicular to their original direction of motion. Calculate the separation between the two chlorine ions after they have made a half circle path in the magnetic field region. u = 1.66 × 10-27 kg, e = 1.6 × 10-19 C)
