The instrument that is used to determine the weight of a proton as well as a positive ion and is capable of recording its result as the photograph is called:
Correct answer: A. Mass spectroscope
- A. Mass spectroscope
- B. Atomic spectroscope
- C. Spectrophotographic analyzer
- D. Spectrophotometer
Explanation
A mass spectroscope is an instrument used to determine the weight (mass) of a proton as well as positive ions. It works based on the principle of mass spectrometry, which involves ionizing a sample and separating the ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio. The resulting ion spectrum can be recorded and analyzed.

About Spectroscopy and Analysis
Spectroscopy studies how substances absorb, emit or interact with electromagnetic radiation. Coverage includes ultraviolet-visible absorption, infrared identification of functional groups, Beer-Lambert law, spectral interpretation and the use of spectroscopic data to identify or determine the concentration of chemical substances.
