What is Understanding the M+ Peak in Mass Spec about?

This document discusses how mass spectrometry can be used to determine the molecular formula of organic compounds. It explains that the molecular ion peak (M+) in a mass spectrum represents the largest ion and relative molecular mass of the compound. For simple compounds, the value of the M+ peak directly gives the relative molecular mass. High resolution mass spectrometry can provide a more accurate m/z value that allows determination of the exact molecular formula by comparing the observed and calculated
