- From the data in Problem 26-14, calculate for species C and D) (a) the resolution. (b) the length of column necessary to separate the two species with a resolution of 2.5.arrow_forwardTwo species A and B are known to have water/hexane partition coefficient of 5.99 and 6.16.They are separated by elution on silica gel with hexane as eluent. The ratio for the packingVS/VM =0.425a. Calculate the retention factor for each soluteb. Calculate the selectivity factorc. How many plates are needed to provide a resolution of 1.5?d. What column length should be used to provide a resolution of 1.5 if the plate height ofthe packing is 1.5 ×10-3cm?e. If the flow rate is 6.75 cm min-1, how long will it take to elute the two species? (the question wanted to be answered)arrow_forwardIn color chromatography of plant pigments, what complications would a dried-out column (solvent level is below the top of the silica) introduce to the elution and isolation of pigments?arrow_forward
- PART A: Substance A was found to have a retention times of 3.15 minutes on a 70.00-cm column. An unretained species passed through the column in 0.50 minutes. The peak width (at base) for A was 0.60 minutes. Using this information, determine the following: 1. What is the retention factor for analyte A? 2. What is the plate count for this column? 3. What is the height equivalent of a theoretical plate? PART B: Match each statement with one of these terms. A Partition coefficient B Mobile phase C Elution D Longitudinal diffusion E Stationary phase F Eddy diffusion G Retention factor H Plate number I Dead time J Retention time K Selectivity factor L Column resolutionarrow_forwardSubstances A and B have retention times of 12.75 and 14.28 min, respectively, on a 30.0-cm column. An unretained species passes through the column in 1.10 min. The peak widths (at base) for A and B are 1.11 and 1.27 min, respectively. What is the resolution?arrow_forwardExplain the purpose of the collision cell in interface between inductively coupled plasma and mass spectrometer.arrow_forward
- In order to improve the peptide separation by using a HPLC system, trifluoroacetic acid acts as mobile-phase modifier was added during the preparation of mobile phase. The preparation was performed by a postgraduate student as following:“2.851 g trifluoroacetic acid (MW: 114.02 g/mol) was made up to 500 cm3 in a graduated flask. To this solution, 50 cm3 of ethanol was added, and after mixing the mobile phase was placed in the solvent reservoir and pumping was commenced at 1.5 cm3 min-1.”Based on the given preparation procedure, identify THREE mistakes that were made.arrow_forwardHow the 2D Thin layer Chromatography separation processes are worked?
