1. Which method of GC gives the highest number of theoretical
plates and hence the best resolution/separating power?
a. Open tubular GC
b. Packed Column GC
2. What is the most appropriate detector for the following
analytes?
"Electron Capture", "Thermal Conductivity", "Thermionic" -
Halogenated Compounds
"Electron Capture", "Thermal Conductivity", "Thermionic" -
Phosphorous and Nitrogen compounds
"Electron Capture", "Thermal Conductivity", "Thermionic" - Mixture
of gases.
Answer1
Gas chromatography is a separation technique used to separate mixture of volatile substances.
it can be done in two ways that are open tubular gas chromatography and packed column gas chromatography
open tubular gas chromatography is the process in which there is finely divided inert solid support material coated with liquid stationary phase.
packed column gas chromatography is the process in which there is capillary tube whose walls are coated with liquid stationary phase
a) No. of theoretical plates depends on various factors among them the length of column is one of the important factor. As, the length of open tubular is very high in comparison to Packed column so the no. of theoretical plates is high in open tubular gas chromatography.
b) Resolution is the measure of clarity of two distinct point as distinct with respect to their distance. Because of greater length the resolution of open tubular gas chromatography is higher in comparison to packed column gas chromatography

The possession of d-methamphetamine is a criminal offense prosecutable at different levels based on amount in possession. The following compounds may or may not be present in a sample confiscated from a suspected met lab. The other compounds are starting materials, fillers, or substitutes (for the purpose of defrauding buyers). The possible compounds in the mixture include: If the compounds above were separated using capillary GC, what would be the most appropriate detector for trace analysis? (A) FTIR (B) electron...

HW #3 for Chem 318 Due: April 29, 2019 1. Solute A has a K 2.5 for an extraction between water (phase 1) and chloroform (phase 2). If 100 mL of a 0.01 fraction will be extracted? For the same solute and, what fraction will be extracted if 5 extractions wi 80 mL chloroform each are used (instead of one 400 ml extraction)? M solution containing solute A in water is extracted one time with...
