Chemistry Flashcards
Examples of adsorption chromatography?
How does it work?
Thin layer, silica column
Solute is adsorbed onto the surface of the stationary phase
What’s partition chromatography consist of?
How does it work?
A thin liquid (oily) stationary phase coated on the surface of a solid support (silica)
Solute dissolved in liquid stationary phase, equilibriate bw 2 phases
What’s ion exchange chromatography consist of?
A resin: anionic or cationic groups covalently attached to a stationary solid phase. And a liquid mobile phase.
In Ion exchange C, how does solute ions attach onto the solid stationary phase?r
By electrostatic Forces between solute ions and charged ions In resin
What’s adsorption chromatography consist of?
A solid stationary phase
Liquid or gaseous mobile phase
What is the British pharmacopoeia?
It is the legal standard of quality for pharmaceuticals and contains specifications for all substances used in the manufacture of medicines. CERY CHEAP techniques that can be used anywhere
What does a pharmacopoeia like monograph tell you?
1) describes the substance
2) specifies a required level of purity
3) describes tests to identify the substance
4) decried test to monitor possible impurities
5) specifies an assay to determine the amount of the substance
What’s the qualitative analysis?
IDENTIFY the substance (and/or monitor and identify possible impurities)
What’s quantitative analysis?
To accurately determine the amount of a substance (could also be the amount of activity)
What’s the quantitative analysis based on?
It is based on finding the linear relationship between the amount of a substance and the measurable chemical, physicals, biological property of that substance

Is volumetric analysis (titration) a Quantitated method or a qualitative method?
How often is it used in the BP
Example?
Quantitative method
Used for about 80% of the substances in the BP
Acid and base and redox titrations
Is spectrophotometric method quantitative or qualitative?
Example of method?
How does it work?
IR Qualitative (provides fingerprint and is used in many monographs as an identification technique: identify substance/ impurities)
UV quantitative and qualitative (is widely used as a quantitative method: determine the amount of substance)
Infrared spectroscopy and UV spectroscopy, the amount of absorption by functional group is measured.
Utilise the interaction of substances with EM radiation.
Are mainly used for pure substances
Describe the chromatographic methods?
Separate mixtures of substances by virtue (through the power of) of their differing affinities for a stationary phase and a mobile phase
TLC can be used as qualitative or quantitative method?
What is its use?
Mainly qualitative - used by BP to monitor/identify impurities
Semi quantitative - use of diluted sample in limit tests for impurities (identify and control the impurities)
Is HPLC qualitative or quantitative method
And whats the most suitable substance used?
Both
Most suitable for pure substances soluble in mixtures of water and polar organic solvents
Internal standard is used to avoid experimental errors
Is GLC quantitative or qualitative?
What substance is most suitable for this one?
Both
Relative volatile and heat stable organic compounds
Use internal standards
