| DRAFT DEFINITION | 
| Chemical ionization | 
|---|
| Describes the process whereby new ionized species are formed when gaseous molecules interact with ions. The process may involve transfer of an electron, a proton or other charged species between the reactants. When a positive ion results from chemical ionization the term may be used without qualification. When a negative ion results the term negative ion chemical ionization should be used. Note that this term is not synonymous with chemi-ionization, nor with negative chemical ionization. | 
| Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission |

Describes the process whereby new ionized species are formed when gaseous molecules interact with ions. The process may involve transfer of an electron, a proton or other charged species between the reactants. When a positive ion results from chemical ionization the term may be used without qualification. When a negative ion results the term negative ion chemical ionization should be used.
