What process is going on while deciding mass accuracy in mass spectrophotometer Instrument?
(1) Sharad, not a "mass spectrophotometer Instrument".
It is known as a mass spectrometer. NO light is measured.
(2) The type of mass analyzer employed and the engineering goals (range, Mw, sampling rate, costs etc.) determine the accuracy. Your question is very broad in scope. Perhaps start by reading some basic texts describing the different types of Mass detectors. There are also many articles which address concerns of resolution vs mass size and accuracy too. A simple keyword search will turn up plenty for you to review. Too much to write here. IOW: Look it up. Here is an example: http://www.waters.com/waters/en_US/Mass-Accuracy-and-Resolution/nav.htm?cid=10091028&locale=en_US
