What is ADsorption?
|
Adsorption is the attachment of molecules onto the surface of a solid. The attachment occurs when secondary interactions form between the molecules and atoms at the surface of the solid.
|
|
What is ABsorption?
|
The incorporation of particles into the body of another material.
|
|
What is Adsorption Chromatography?
|
A widely used technique for separating and identifying the components of mixtures.
It is also commonly used to quantitatively determine the concentrations of the components. |
|
What is a stationery phase?
|
The material onto which the components of the substance are adsorbed
|
|
Mobile phase?
|
The liquid (or gas) that moves across the stationary phase carrying the mixture
|
|
4 different types of adsorption chromatography?
|
Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC)
Column " Gas - Solid " (GSC) Liquid - Solid " (LSC) |
|
Common materials used for solid stationary phase?
|
Silica - SiO2
Alumina - Al2O3 |
|
Normal phase?
|
The polarity of stationary phase is greater than polarity of mobile phase
|
|
Reverse Phase?
|
Polarity Stationary phase less than polarity of mobile phase.
|
|
Reverse phase uses what stationary phase?
|
An ODS particle with non-polar C18 groups on the surface.
|
|
Desorption?
|
Where a substance returns to the mobile phase
|
|
Eluted?
|
Act of washing down a substance in column chromatography
|
|
Elutent?
|
Mobile phase in column chromatograpy
|
|
How do you increase sample amount in TLC?
|
The solvent is allowed to evaporate and the spotting procedure is repeated
|
|
What is a Chromatogram?
|
A visible record showing the results of a chromatograpy process
|
|
How are colorless organic compounds made visible in TLC?
|
1. By placing the plate under UV light, making the dots appear blue
2. Plate is sprayed with a chemical reagent |
|
What is a standard?
|
An identified substance that has moved across the stationary phase by a known distance, using the same mobile and stationary phase.
|
|
What is the retardation factor?
|
A ratio value that allows for the identification of a substance.
|
|
Calculate Retardation factor
|
Compound Dist
-------------------- Mobile Dist |
|
What gas is used for mobile phase in Gas - Solid?
|
Helium or Nitrogen
|
|
What is mobile phase in gas-solid called?
|
A carrier Gas
|
|
Gas - solid chrome? Used for?
|
Used to separate mixtures of volatile organic compounds. Contains uniformly sized particles.
|
|
Qualitative Identification? (Gas -Solid)
|
Comparing rendition time values with known compounds.
|
|
Quantitative analysis? (Gas -Solid)
|
Comparing the peaks on chromatogram to fit the ratio of amounts in mixture.
|
|
High Pressure Liquid - Solid Chomatograpy? (HPLC)
|
Used for mixtures with components with high boiling points.
Mobile phase enters under high pressure pump |
|
Mobile phases? From Non-polar to polar
|
Cyclohexane
Ethyl Ethanoate Propanol Ethanol Water Ethanoic Acid |
|
Solvent Front?
|
The point where the mobile phase reaches
