11-12(4) Flashcards
What is the stationary phase of GC?
usually a nonvolatile liquid but sometimes a solid
What is the limit of GC?
It can only analyze the sample that are volatile or can be evaporated intact at higher temperature with out breaking down.
_____ of known organic compounds can be analyzed with this technique therefore it is some what limited
20%
The _____ needs to be in high purity (______ppb O2).
carrier gas; < 1 ppb O2
In gas-liquid partition chromatography: stationary phase is ______ liquid bonded to inside of column or to a fine solid support.
nonvolatile
What type of carrier gas usually used depend on the ______
detector
example Ne2, H2, N2
silicon rubber septumpoked through with needle and analyte immediately ______ in the injector oven.
volatilize
Column needs to be hot enough to provide sufficient ____ ____ for elution of analyte.
Because there are probability of molecule _______ and do not get to the detector(analyte lost).
vapor pressure
condensation
In gas-solid adsorption chromatography:
Analyte _____ ______ on solid particles of stationary phase.
adsorbed directly
______ _____ columns (capilary columns) are most frequently used stationary phase in GC(fused silica)
Open tubular
Open tubular columns in comparison to the packed columns would offer: (4 things)
higher resolution (make A term nonexistence) shorter analysis time (higher flow rate) greater sensitivity (Also associate with A term) lower sample capacity (smaller amount of sample injection-limited)
The length of the GC column is about _____ long and ____ for polyimide coating (up to 350 degree).
15-100m
stationary phase = 0.1-5um(0.1-0.53mm for diameter of the inner column)
There are three kinds of open tubular columns: ____ (WCOT) _____ (SCOT) _____ (PLOT)
wall-coated (stationary liquid phase)
support-coated (solid support coated with stationary liquid phase)
Porous layer (stationary solid phase particles)
____ _____ (2um) on inside wall of OT column.
Porous carbon
Narrower column will create a ____ resolution, which can also be increased with _____. Increased resolution means more _______.
High ______ is required for less sample capacity.
higher (improved separation)
square root of column length(retention time increased)
theoretical plate (N) ->gives baseline separation
pressure
If the diameter is ______ mm cannot use MS as detector because it needs ______ and if too much gas, it goes down.
> 0.32
vacuum
increases retention time and resolution of k< 5 peaks
if k=capacity factor is less than 5,
leads to thicker inner later
and higher resolution
P568
Choice of liquid stationary phase is like dissolve like.
Therefore chose the one that is good for ______ of molecule.
separation
P569
As GC column ages, ______ can be lost due to exposure to _____.
________ (Si-OH) exposed and _______ can increase. which is referred to as “bleeding”
stationary phase
high temperature
silanol group
tailing
“Bleeding” is the signal difference from GC system that is not from the _____.
analyte
tailing are asymmetrical signals peaks
- which is due to stationary phase degradation
Most retened compounds are the ones with ____ boiling point.
Thus retention is determined by ______.
highest
volatility
___ polar stationary phase should be used to help the separation of the polar compounds.
______ is important for stationary phase for the choice between polar and non-polar.
more
selectivity
To reduce the bleed from high temperature, chemically bond it to ______ surface is required.
It is also a good idea to monitor _______ (k of standard or N)
silica
column performance
k=capacity factor
N=theoretical plate N
high operation temperature will cause stationary phase to ________ and leads to slow bleed which cause elevated ______ in detector.
And lastly, reduced ______ and _______.
decompose
background
signal to noise
detector contamination
A new type of GC stationary phase uses ____ _____.
It has low ____ at elevated temperature, and is potential to offer novel _____.
ionic liquids
volatility
selectivites
Solids for porous OT columns: polymers, ______ and molecular sieves.
alumina (Al2O3)
Packed columns contain solid particles coated with _______ stationary phase or _____for stationary phase.
non-volatile
solid itself
Packed sample has better sample ______. but give _____ peaks, _____ tr (retention time), and ____ resolution.
capacity (more)
broader
longer
less
