Contrast the advantages and disadvantages of reversed-phase HPLC with normal-phase chromatographic techniques.
In RP-HPLC (reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography), mobile phase is polar. The stationary phase is hydrophobic or non-polar. So, the molecules of mobile phase adsorb to the molecules of stationary phase. The hydrophilic molecules of mobile phase (sample) tend to pass through the column easily. So, this technique is a useful technique to separate hydrophilic or polar molecules. The hydrophobic stationary phase can be used in conjunction with hydrophobic, hydrophilic and ionic compounds to separate their components. This means that most of organic analytes can be separated via this technique. One more advantage is that water can be used as a mobile phase in reverse phase HPLC. So, the technique becomes a bit cheap and easy to operate in comparison to others. Gradient separation is also possible. There is a choice of pH selectivity during the separation process.
This is not the case with normal-phase chromatography.
In normal- phase chromatography opposite phenomenon happens. The mobile phase is 100% organic or non-polar. The stationary phase is silica gel which is polar. Molecules of mobile phase adsorb over stationary phase. But the hydrophilic molecules of the mobile phase (sample) will not be separated. They will bind with the molecules of mobile phase itself. So, resolution will not be very good in comparison to HPLC. Moreover normal-phase technique is tedious because lot of preparation is required in silica.
Some disadvantages of reverse-phase technique are:

A reversed phase HPLC column is eluted with 1:1 MeOH/H2O and tm is determined to be 0.22 min. After injection of an unknown, peaks are observed at 0.22 min, 3.6min, 6.6 min, and 25.4 min. a) Which of the analyte peaks corresponds to the least polar compound? b) Calculate a new solvent mixture to cause this compound to elute at 15 min.

Select the correct characteristics describing normal-phase and reversed-phase chromatography. Normal-phase chromatography Reversed-phase chromatography (a) Polarity of phases: Stationary phase is polar Stationary phase is non polar b) Eluent strength of solvent. Increases as solvent becomes more polar. Increases as solvent becomes less polar c) Nature of solutes. Polar Non-polar d) Nature of solute interaction. More soluble in mobile phase as the polarity of the mobile phase increases. More soluble in mobile phase as the polarity of the mobile phase decreases....
