typically today we use reverse phase HPLC, reverse phase means you have a non-polar substrate in the column. C18 is common. With like attracts like the non-polor stationary phases holds on to the non-polar part of your analyte. You increase the non-polar organic in your mobile phase slowly with time passing to elute the compounds in order of increasing non-polar character.

If you are are using a different stationary phase with a different mechanism that equation is the same with like attracting like on the stationary phase and you elute the compounds by increasing the concentration of the attracting characteristic in the mobile phase. If you column is ionic you would elute your compounds by increasing the concentration of an ion or cation in the mobile phases.

The components of a mixture are adsorbed on the solid to varying degrees, depending on the nature of the component, the nature of the adsorbent, and the temperature. The rate at which a component will move along the solid depends on its relative tendency to be dissolved in to solvent and adsorbed on the solid.

A mixture is when two or more substances which have been combined such that each substance retains its own chemical identity.

When two or more substances react they lose there chemical identity and have to undergo a chemical reaction (or if they are not reversible reactions a series of reactions) to return to there original chemical.

With a mixture you can just exploit the physical properties of one of the constituent parts to separate them, such as with a mixture of iron powder and graphite powder you can use a magnet to separate the iron.

But with a chemical reaction such as C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2Os

This cannot be reversed quickly and has to undergo the process of photosynthesis to achive this.

How is neon separated from other materials found in it?

Most often by fractional distillation.


In analytical chemistry what is mean by blank?

A blank is a sample in which you will find none of the analyte you're looking for in your samples. For example, simple deionized water is often used as a blank when analyzing a group of samples that are concentrated in water.


What is TLC in chemistry?

White blood cells, or leukocytes are cells of the immune system involved in defending the body against both infectious disease and foreign materials. The number of leukocytes in the blood is often an indicator of disease. There are normally approx. 7000 white blood cells per microliter of blood. They make up approximately 1% of the total blood volume in a healthy adult.An increase in the number of leukocytes over the upper limits is called leukocytosis, and a decrease below the lower limit is called leukopenia.so, total leukocytes count help us to determine the no. of white blood cell........TLC ranges- 4000 to 8000or10000.so if ur tlc range is below 4000 than consult ur doctor because precaution is better than cure...............:D


Which one of the following methods is used to separate the colors in food dyes?

To separate food coloring and water you put the two into a glass. Then you put a pice of celary into it. The food coloring will run up the roots of the celary. If left long enough the celary will turn the colour of the food colouring leaving water behind.


What are four methods of separating the parts of a mechanical mixture?

A centrifuge might separate out a mixture if the particles that are mixed together are of significantly different sizes/densities, but other than that there aren't any good ways to mechanically separate out a mixture. The answer is filtration because filtrarion seperates the two things after filtrated.... (eg: water and bacteria are a mixture, but if you filtrate them, the 2 substances separate making them unmixtured.) ..... the answer again is filtrate.

What procedure did you use to separate plant pigments?

Place leaf in beaker and heat with Bunsen burner until water has discolored and boiled, then place leaf in test tube filled methylated spirits and place in same beaker as before with the burner turned OFF. Methylated spirits boils at around 80 degrees Celsius so when placed in heated water it will boil. This process will separate the chlorophyll (pigment) in the leaf.

Why is chromatography used in the police?

the police use chromatography to solve crimes, for example if they wanted to solve if a drug or a substance was illegal or legal they would use paper chromatograhy which would mean they would place the substance or a drug on paper dip it in a testing liquid which could be water for example and if the paper turns purple for example that liquid may be illegal or if that dot of the certain substance rises over 5cm for example it may be illegal so chromatography comes in very handy for the police and solving there crimes ! Hope this helped ;) xxx

What is the difference between Chromatography and Spectrometry?

GCMS involves running the sample through a mass spectrometer following the data received from chromatography. MS fragments the analytes to show patterns specific to the analyte (and the ionization technique and sector powers) therefore allowing the analyte to be identified. GC is used to separate all volatile substituents of a sample so they can be identified one by one.

What difference between dad and uv detector in hplc?

Liquid chromatography (LC) encompasses all chromatographic techniques using liquid mobile phase, including planar chromatography (paper chromatography and thin-layer chromatography) and column chromatography (classical column chromatography, and high-performance liquid chromatography on packed and capillary columns). The term liquid chromatography is nowadays often used as a sinonim for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC).
