Explain the mass spectrum of an organic compound shows

Reference no: EM13154810

The mass spectrum of an organic compound shows the relative abundances of M to be 85.12% and M+1 to be 0.9206%. Assuming the peaks are caused by C-12 and C-13 isotopes, determine the number of carbon atoms in the compound. Natural abundances: C-12 is 98.93% and C-13 is 1.07%.
