Unit 1 sample assessment Paper, MCQ 3.Buckminsterfullerene is a carbon molecule with formula C60 which can trap metal ions in its structure. Which of the following compounds of buckminsterfullerene would give a line of mass/charge ratio at 837.3 in a mass spectrometer?
A Na4C60
B K3C60   
C Ca3C60
D AgC60
Answer is B , can some body explain the logic?   

Meticulous:
m/z ratio= m/1

so calc the Mr of all compounds. It's B.

in the attached file

1 = standard enthalpy of combustion of A
2 = standard enthalpy of formation of A
3 = standard enthalpy of formation of B
4 = standard enthalpy of formation of C

NB. O2 does an enthalpy of formation of 0 kJ/mol

using Hess's Law

1 = 3 + 4 - 2

just substitute in the values

Thanks a lot. Crystal clear. So it's only for enthalpy change of combustion...nothing for formation?

For Edexcel AS Chemistry [New Spec] is knowledge of Unit 2 required in Unit 1? I'm asking because I've not been able to finish Unit 2 yet, and I'm wondering if it will negatively affect my Unit 1 exam. Precisely, which parts of Unit 2 are we supposed to learn when sitting for Unit 1?

Darth Austrakast:
Well the Mechanism chapter in Unit 2 might help you with Unit 1 Organic Chemistry...........but you technically don't have to learn anything...you can just go through the topics--specially shapes of molecules,inter-molecular forces etc which are related to structure and bonding
