Johnson

Johnson is a surname of English origin. The name itself is a patronym of the given name John, literally meaning "son of John". The name John derives from Latin Johannes, which is derived through Greek Ἰωάννης Iōannēs from Hebrew יוחנן Yohanan, meaning "Yahweh has favoured". The name has been extremely popular in Europe since the Christian era as a result of it being given to St John the Baptist, St John the Evangelist and nearly one thousand other Christian saints.

Kendrick mass

The Kendrick mass is defined by setting the mass of a chosen molecular fragment, typically CH₂, to an integer value in atomic mass units. It is different from the IUPAC definition, which is based on setting the mass of ¹²C isotope to exactly 12 u. The Kendrick mass is often used to identify homologous compounds differing only by a number of base units in high resolution mass spectra. This definition of mass was first suggested in 1963 by chemist Edward Kendrick, and it has been adopted by scientists working in the area of high-resolution mass spectrometry, environmental analysis, proteomics, petroleomics, metabolomics, etc.

Definition

According to the procedure outlined by Kendrick, the mass of CH₂ is defined as exactly 14 Da, instead of the IUPAC mass of 14.01565 Da.

To convert an IUPAC mass of a particular compound to the Kendrick mass, the equation

is used. The mass in dalton units (Da) can be converted to the Kendrick scale by dividing by 1.0011178.

Other groups of atoms in addition to CH₂ can be used define the Kendrick mass, for example CO₂, H₂, H₂O, and O. In this case, the Kendrick mass for a family of compounds F is given by
