What is an eluent?
solvent
What is the difference between the stationary phase and the mobile phase in chromatography?
stationary phase stays at the bottom of the paper chromatography while mobile phase is moving on the stationary phase and move on stationary phase till it gets its right place on the top of the paper or somwhere else.
What happens if the eluent is above the 1.5cm line in a chromatography experiment?
If the eluent is above the 1.5cm line in a chromatography experiment there will not be a proper distribution in a test tube to discover the sources of ink on a paper. A chromatography experiment tests for the sources of ink whether it be chemical or plant based.
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
Why we have to calibrate the hplc?
1.calibration of pump. 2.column themostate /oven calibration 3.gradient composition 4.accuracy of autoinjector and detector response 5.carry over test. 6.wavelength accuracy 7.system precision.

What are three way that mixtures can separated?
Three ways would be Liquid liquid - distillation (separation based on boiling points) Column chromatography separates solids dissolved in eluent based on polarity Filtration (washing with a solvent that dissolves one compound and not another)
What is eluent front?
Is the eluent on the front of the Chromatography paper.
What is the advantage of allowing the eluent front to rise near the top of the TLC sheet rather than stopping when only half way up?
When you calculate RF values, you need the distance moved by the dye (or whatever you're using) and the distance moved by the solvent (the eluent front) Given that no matter where the eluent front stops your measurement will always have the same standard error (say +- 1mm if you're using TLC plates and a normal ruler), then the further your eluent front and dye move, the less that measurement error will impact on your RF value - the error will be a smaller % of the overall distance.
Eluent front distance from the origin for blue dye?
???
What is liquid used in chromatography called?
This liquid is called mobile phase or eluent.

stationary phase stays at the bottom of the paper chromatography while mobile phase is moving on the stationary phase and move on stationary phase till it gets its right place on the top of the paper or somwhere else.

Is benzene and chloroform mixture a good eluent?
A good eluent is one that gives good separation between your target compound and impurities. Use a TLC plate to get a feel for the effect of the eluent on your purification. If this is your first time purifying this reaction, a good Rf to aim for in regard to your target compound is 0.2 - 0.25, and impurities should have at least an Rf difference of 0.1 - 0.15 compared to your target compound. Benzene is rather toxic and should not be used for eluting large quantities of compound. But if your reaction is around 2g scale or less, benzene should be ok.
What is the retardation factor?
In chemical chromatography, it is a measure of the relative mobility of components of a mixture through a stationary phase while experiencing the forces of a mobile eluent phase, based on relative intermolecular attractive forces and molecular size. In thin layer chromatography, is it the ratio of distance travelled by a component compared to the distance travelled by the eluent front from the point of contact with the mixture. In column chromatography, it is the fraction of the component in the mobile phase at equilibrium. By comparison, in gas chromatography, relative retention times on the stationary phase are measured and compared for the mixture components.
What are three ways to separate substances in a mixture?
Three ways would be Liquid liquid - distillation (separation based on boiling points) Column chromatography separates solids dissolved in eluent based on polarity Filtration (washing with a solvent that dissolves one compound and not another)
