What is the significance of the stationary phase in gas chromatography?

The stationary phase is the medium that is used to react with the mobile phase. The molbile phase is sent through the column. The stationary phase is inside the column and reacts with your carrier liquid (mobile phase) which contains the sample that you want to be analyzed. Stationary phase is different for every column because you need different mediums for different tests.


What is an HPLC column?

HPLC Column is one type of tube containing a stationary phase react with mobile phase to detect peak


What is the principle of GC?

Gas chromatography (GC) separates and analyzes compounds based on their distribution between a stationary phase (inside a column) and a mobile phase (a carrier gas). Compounds with different affinities for the stationary phase will travel through the column at different rates, allowing for their separation. The detector at the end of the column detects these compounds based on their unique retention times.


What is stationary phase and mobile phase?

mobile phase is the phase that consist of the analyte and stationary phase is the phase that is standstill


If the column is polar then what types of illution first polar or non-polar?

if the column is polar then non polar ellute first because of its less interaction with that of stationary phase.


Why H2O is stationary phase in chromatography?

Water does not have to be the stationary phase. It can be the diluent. Stationary phases are a wide array of substances. The stationary phase depends on the sample being analyzed.


What is the difference between reverse phase and normal phase chromatography?

Normal Phase: It has a polar stationary phase and a non-polar mobile phase.Reverse Phase: It has a non-polar stationary phase and a moderately polar mobile phase


What is the importance of a mixed elution solvent in column chromatography?

In column chromatography, the stationary phase, a solid adsorbent, is placed in a vertical glass (usually) column and the mobile phase, a liquid, is added to the top and flows down through the column (by either gravity or external pressure). Column chromatography is generally used as a purification technique: it isolates desired compounds from a mixture.


What are the advantages and limitations of column chromatography over thin layer chromatography?

TLC. The mobile phase is a liquid, the stationary phase is a solid. Useful for seperating and comparing mobility of solids and some liquids dissolved in the mobile phase by their affinities to the solid phase relative to the mobile phase. GLC. The mobile phase ia s gas, the stationary phase is a liquid on a solid support. same concept as TLC. useful for seperating gases by their affinities to the stationary phase...the mobility can then be compared to known compounds for possible identification.


What would have been the result if a large quantity of petroleum ether alone were used as the eluent in either of the experiments described in column chromatography?

petroleum ether is a lot less polar than solvents like MTBE and the hexanes. so if the stationary phase is a lot more polar than the solvent then the components of the mixture that were added to the column to be separated will get stuck in the stationary phase


What is mobile and stationary phase in Chromatography?

Moblie phase is that phase in chromatography that moves the analyte components along with it. Stationary phase remains static during chromatography.


What is void volume in hplc?

Total volume of mobile phase in a fully wet packed column- the space between the particles of the stationary phase plus the volume within the particles
