(a)
Interpretation:
The reason for the streak formation on silica gel TLC plates by carboxylic acids and addition of acetic acid to reduce the streaking should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Thin Layer Chromatography is a sensitive chromatographic technique which used to analyze small quantities of the samples by solid-liquid adsorption method. Rectangular glass plate is coated with an adsorbent, sample to be analyzed is run on the plate in the developing chamber with the mobile phase to give spots of the analyzed sample.
(b)
Interpretation:
The chemical component which has to use to reduce the streaking on the TLC caused by the amine should be identified.

- Thin layer chromatography : When placed on a plate, the silica gel has a polar surface. Explain why. What intermolecular forces can form between the silica and the reference molecules? Name them.arrow_forwardDoe hydrophobic silica gel act as non-polar stationary phase in TLC making the process as reverse chromatography? explainarrow_forwardName types of gels (sieving matrix) that may be used for gel filtration chromatography and discuss the types of samples which may be used for each.arrow_forward
- Use the data below from the titration of two water samples. Calculate the average ppm for the two trials. Volume of Water sample used for each titration 50.31 Concentration of EDTA used for both trails 0.012 Trial 1 Trial 2 Initial Syringe Volume - 8.98 Initial Syringe Volume - 9.46 Final Syringe Volume - 0.97 Final Syringe Volume - 1.53arrow_forwardMetal ions chelate polar groups of analyte molecules for longer retention time. Does this affect chromatogram of RPHPLC?arrow_forwardHow does increasing the polarity of the developing solvent affect the Rf of a compound on a silica gel TLC plate?arrow_forward
- Silica gel (stationary phase) can potentially interact with analytes by what intermolecular forces?arrow_forwardA student performs a separation by TLC on a silica gel platee that results in three spots. A red spot is measured 23 mm away from the original sample spot, a blue spot is 42 mm away, and a yellow spot is 49 mm away. the distance from the original spot to where the solvent stopped is 55 mm. a) calculate the Rf value for each componenet in the mixture (show work and report th correct number of significant figures) b) the silica gel plate is polar. rank the three componenets in the mixture from lowest to highest polarity. Explain your answer.arrow_forward0.56 g 1,4‐dimethoxybenzene, 0.9 mL 2‐chloro‐2‐methylpropane, 5 mL nitrobenzene and 0.52 g graphite were combined, and the mixture was refluxed for 1.5 hours. It was then cooled to room temperature and filtered. The filtered graphite was washed with 15 mL hexane. The filtrate was distilled under vacuum to remove any remaining 1,4‐dimethoxybenzene, 2‐chloro‐2‐ methylpropane and nitrobenzene (6.3 g), yielding 0.44 g 1,4‐di‐tert‐butyl‐2,5‐dimethoxybenzene (43.4% yield). What is the Atom economy, E factor, and effective mass yield?arrow_forward
