Gas chromatography was used to analyse for residues of toxic solvents, including benzene and 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE), in a pharmaceutical preparation. The following conditions were used: Column: 30 m long capillary with polysiloxane stationary phaseCarrier gas: He at 35 cm s–1 constant flowOven program: 40 °C at t = 0, increasing at 10 °C min–1 to 240 °C at t = 20 min. Detector: flame ionisation (FID) Benzene eluted with retention time = 11.5 min, peak width = 0.26 min 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) eluted with retention time = 11.8 min, peak width = 0.28 min (i) What are the strengths and limitations of the flame ionisation detector in this application, compared with other possible methods of detection? (ii) What is the resolution, RS, for the separation of benzene and DCE on this column? (iii) Suggest two ways by which the resolution of benzene and DCE might be improved. Explain your choices.
Internal standard. A mixture containing 12.8 mM analyte (X) and 44.4 mM standard (S) gave chromatographic peak areas of 306 for X and 511 for S. A second solution containing an unknown quantity of X plus 55.5 mM S had peak areas of 251 for X and 563 for S. Find [X] in the second solution.

A new method is proposed to simultaneously detectand separatefour foodadditives by reversed-phase liquid chromatography. The data were obtained using theliquid chromatographic column with a flow rate of 0.5 mL per min and with the followingparameters: Pore size 100 A Particle Size 3.5 Internal diameter 4.6 mm Length 150 mm The food additives found in the sample resulted in the following data: ( see image for table) a.Calculate the number of plates from each peak. b.Calculate the plate height for the column. c.Retention factor for each peak.
