The retention volume of a solute is 76.2mL for a column withVm=16.6mL andVs=12.7mL . Calculate the retention factor and the partition coefficient for this solute.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Retention factor = k = 3.59
  2. Partition coefficient= K = 4.69

Step by step solution

01

Given Information:

Vr=76.2mL,Vm=16.6mL,Vs=12.7mL

02

To find the Retention factor:

Retention factor as

k=Vr-VmVm

Substitute the given data values are

k=76.2mL-16.6mLVmk=3.59

03

To find the Partition coefficient;

K=k×VmVs

Substitute the given data values are

k=3.59×16.6mLK=4.69

The solute in Problem 23 - 8 is initially dissolved in 80.0 mL of water. It is then extracted six times with 10.0mL portions of chloroform. Find the fraction of solute remaining in the aqueous phase.

(a) Explain why the diffusion coefficient of CH3OHis greater than that of

sucrose in Table 23-1.

(b) Make an order-of-magnitude estimate of the diffusion coefficient of water

vapor in air at 298K.

Match statements 1–5 with the band broadening terms in the second list.

1. Depends on radius of open tubular column.

2. Not present in an open tubular column.

3. Depends on length and radius of connecting tubing.

4. Increases with diffusion coefficient of solute.

5. Increases with thickness of stationary phase film.

A Multiple paths

B Longitudinal diffusion

EC Extra column band broadening

A Gas chromatogram of a mixture of toluene and ethyl acetate is shown here:

(a)Use the width of each peak (measured at the base)to calculate the number of theoretical plates in the column. Estimate all lengths to the nearest 0.1 mm.

(b)Using the width of the toluene peak at its base, calculate the width expected at half height. Compare the measured and calculated values. When the thickness of the the line is significant relative to the length being measured, it is important to take the pen line width into account. You can measure from the edge of one line to the corresponding edge of the other line,as shown here.
