The molecular ion is not visible in the mass spectrum of 2-chloro-2- methylpropane. At what m/z value would the molecular ion be if it were visible? What evidence is there in the mass spectrum that suggests that the peak at m/z= 77 contains a chlorine atom?

 hello the complete question is attached below

Visibility of molecular ion = m/z value of 77

Explanation:

For The molecular ion to be visible, it has to be at an m/z value of 77 and this is because molecular ions will have an m/z ratio =  molecular mass of given molecule in most cases but not always in all cases.

And the visibility is possible after the removal of CH₃ ion.

ii) Evidence in the mass spectrum that suggests peak at m/z = 77
