Immiscible
liquids that when mixed form separate phases
Miscible
liquids that when mixed form a single phase
Solvent Extraction
transfer of a solute from one phase to another
Chromatography
technique in which molecules in a mobile phase are separated because of their different affinities for a stationary phase
Mobile Phase
the solvent moving through the column (gas or liquid)
Stationary Phase
the phase that doesn't move
Eluent
fluid entering the column
Eluate
fluid emerging from the end of the column
Elution
process of passing a liquid or gas through a chromatography column
Packed Column
filled with particles of a stationary phase
Open Tubular Column
column with a narrow, hollow capillary with stationary phase coated on the inside walls
Adsorption Chromatography
solid stationary phase and a liquid or gas mobile phase are used; solute is adsorbed on the surface of the solid particles
Partition Chromatography
high-boiling liquid stationary phase is bonded to a solid surface, which is typically the inside of the silica chromatography column in gas chromatography
Ion-exchange Chromatography
anions or cations are covalently attached to the stationary solid phase usually a resin; solute ions of the opposite charge are attracted to the stationary phase
Molecular Exclusion Chromatography
molecules are separated by size in a porous gel; no attractive interaction between the stationary phase and solute
Affinity Chromatography
employs specific interactions between one kind of solute molecule and a second molecule that is covalently attached to the stationary phase
Volume Flow Rate
how many mL of solvent per minute that travel through the column (volume of solvent per unit time)
Linear Flow Rate
how many cm of column length are traveled in one minute by solvent (distance per unit time traveled by solvent)
Chromatogram
graph showing the detector response as a function of elution time
Retention Time
the time needed after injection of the mixture onto the column until that component reaches the detector
Retention Volume
the volume of mobile phase required to elute a particular solute from the column
Adjusted Retention Time
the additional time required for a solute to travel the length of the column beyond the time required for unretained solvent
Relative Retention
the ratio of adjusted retention times for two components (>RR=>separation)
Capacity Factor
adjusted retention time for a peak divided by the time for the mobile phase to travel through the column (indicator of efficiency of separation)
Resolution
how close two bands in a chromatogram can be to each other and still be seen as two peaks
Diffusion
random motion of molecules in a liquid or gas
Diffusion Coefficient
rate at which a substance moves randomly from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration
