JCE Software, 6B2: Animated Demonstrations II

Animated Demonstrations II: Mass Spectrometer; Single-Crystal X-Ray Diffraction

Note:
Series B (MS DOS) software previously included on the General Chemistry Collection CD-ROM is now available for free download by Journal of Chemical Education subscribers.

These two programs continue a series of animated demonstrations published earlier (1). Mass Spectrometer provides an animated view of the workings of a simple mass spectrometer. A lecturer or student may select one of several different elements and generate its mass spectrum. Peaks appear on a chart and isotopic masses and abundances are reported in a table. Single-Crystal X-ray Diffraction shows an X-ray source, an animated beam of X-rays, a rotating single crystal, and a film on which spots are produced by diffraction of the beam.
