When 2-propanol was used as the developing solvent, two substances moved with the solvent front (Rf = 1) during TLC analysis on a silica gel plate. Can you conclude that they are identical? If not, what additional experiments(s) would you perform?
1. When 2-propanol was used as the developing solvent, two substances moved with the solvent front (Rf= 1) during TLC analysis on a silica gel plate. Can you conclude that they are identical? If not, what additional experiment(s) would you perform? 2. The Rf value of compound A is 0.34 when a TLC plate is developed in hexane and 0.44 when the plate is developed in diethyl ether. Compound B has an Rf value of 0.42 in hexane and 0.60...
TLC Consider the following silica gel TLC plate of compounds A, B, and developed in hexanes: solvent front 0 D origin A B C 22. Determine the Ry values of compounds A, B, and Crun on a silica gel TLC plate using hexanes as the solvent. 23. Which compound, A, B, or C, is the most polar? 24. What would you expect to happen to the Ry values if you used acetone instead of hexanes as the eluting solvent? 25.TLC...
Please help 2. Consider the TLC plate shown below that was done on silica gel using a solvent mixture of 4:1 hexane/EtoAc as the eluent. 4:1 Hexane:EtOAC marked solvent front Spot B Spot A A origin (a) Which of the two organic compounds labeled A and B is less polar? (b) Calculate the Rf value of compound B. (c) How would the following changes affect the Rf values of A and B? i. Change to a more polar solvent mixture...
1. A mixture containing Compound X and Compound Y is analyzed using silica gel TLC. a. If Compound X has an Rf value of 0.7 and Compound Y has an Rvalue of 0.3, which compound is more polar? Explain. b. The solvent traveled 50 mm. How far did Compound Y travel? 2. Why isn't it reasonable for an R. value to be greater than 1? 3. How many spots would you expect to see if you conducted a TLC separation...
1-) Silica gel has a bulk density of about 0.3 g/cm3, so 15 g would occupy a volume of 45-50 cm3 (45-50 mL). This quantity is called the: 2-) You are carrying out a chromatographic separation on a 15 mg sample using 6.5 g of silica gel in your column. If you aim for a column height of 10 cm of silica gel, what is the inside diameter of the necessary chromatography column in units of cm? 3-) Consider the...
3) Consider the compounds trans-4-tert-butylcyclohexanol (1) and 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone (2) below. Using silica gel TLC plates, which of the two compounds will have the higher R value when dichloromethane is the developing solvent? Why? (5 pts).
2. Aspirin, acetaminophen, and caffeine are some of the substances being tested in this TLC experiment. Look at their structures and atoms present to help you explain why 100% hexane would NOT be a good TLC developing solvent (chromatography solvent) to use in this Thin Layer Chromatography experiment.
3. TLC analysis of an unknown sample using pure ethyl acetate as a developing solvent gives a single spot with an Rf value of 0.08 1 points A. Explain why this result does not guarantee that the sample is a pure compound. B. Suggest two changes that could be made to the experiment to improve the analysis of the unknown sample. 2 points Change 1 Change 2
why is the mel di Using the TLC slide drawn below, calculate the Rr values for each spot. See page /o in the lab manual for help. b. State which of the three known substances are present in the unknown by comparing the Unknown Rr values to the Rx values for the Known substances. See page 76 in the lab manual for help. You will need a metric ruler. Solvent front- Origin of spot lu 1 2 3 U =...
