chroma Flashcards
are multistage separation
methods in which the components of
a sample are distributed between
two phases, of which one is stationary
and the other is mobile.
Chromatographic separation
techniques
separate different components present in a sample since samples contain a mixture
polar and nonpolar, ionic or non ionic compounds
Chromatographic separation
techniques
may be a solid or a liquid
supported on a solid or a gel
STATIONARY PHASE
may be packed in a column,
spread as a layer, distributed as
a film, or applied by other
techniques
STATIONARY PHASE
may be in a gaseous or liquid
form, or a supercritical fluid
MOBILE PHASE
any substance at a temperature
and pressure above its critical point, where distinct
liquid and gas phases do not exist, but below the
pressure required to compress it into a solid.
supercritical fluid -
supercritical fluid -
Border of being a liquid
and being a gas.
SP of Ion exchange
negatively charged
beads
Separated by size by
virtue of density
Size Exclusion
pressure needed when the column is very
packed
high pressure
T/F: Column is a very porous material but need
help of pressure when it is very packed
TRUE
Gas chrom SP:
liquid or solid
Liquid Chromatography SP:
solid or liquid
Gas chrom MP:
gas
Liquid Chromatography MP
liquid
a graphical representation of the
detector response,
concentration of analyte in the
eluent, or other quantity used as
a measure of eluent
concentration versus eluent
volume or time
CHROMATOGRAM
volume between the point at
which the eluents meet and the
top of the column
DWELL VOLUME/GRADIENT DELAY VOLUME
T/F:dwell volume: mobile phase
T
Air can cause a __________ on the chromatogram
peak
the time required for elution of an unretained component
HOLD-UP TIME (TM)
shown as an
air or unretained solvent peak, with the baseline scale in minutes
HOLD-UP TIME (TM)
the volume of mobile phase required for elution of an unretained
component
HOLD-UP VOLUME (VM)
time for the unretained component to be eluted
Tm
Volume required to push the unretained component =
Vm
Faster flow rate - ________ components are removed
more components are removed
formula for Vm
Vm = Tm (hold-up time) x F
a measure of column efficiency
NUMBER OF THEORETICAL PLATES (N)
depends upon the substance being chromatographed as well as the
operating conditions, such as the flow rate and temperature of the
mobile phase or carrier gas, the quality of the packing, the uniformity of
the packing within the column, and, for capillary columns, the thickness
of the stationary phase film and the internal diameter and length of the
column
