46
Q

A

yes, because we are using an Na-D line

47
Q

What causes liquid to enter a capillary bell during a boiling point measurement?

A

the vapor cooling to the boiling point

48
Q

When doing a gas chromatography, what problems would a low injector temperature cause?

A

it will produce a broad band that will make separation and quantification difficult

49
Q

When doing a gas chromatography, what problems would a low detector temperature cause?

A

it could produce clogs

50
Q

When doing a gas chromatography, how is retention time affected by injector temperature?

A

no effect

51
Q

When doing a gas chromatography, how is retention time affected by column temperature?

A

it will lower the retention time of any compounds that have a lower BP than the temperature it is set at

52
Q

A

no effect

53

59
Q

A

raise it

60
Q

What is “eutectic”?

A

A homogenous mix that melts and solidifies at a single temperature that is lower than the melting points of the separate constituents or of any other mixture of them.

61
Q

What change is measured in a refractive index?

A

The change of the speed of light as it passes from the air into another medium, such as an organic liquid

62
Q

What is a theoretical plate and what is its use?

A

A theoretical plate (N) is defined as one cycle of evaporation-condensation. A simple distillation has only one. The efficiency of fractional distillation is quantified by the number of theoretical plates, because multiple theoretical plates give better separations.

63
Q

What is an “azeotrope”?

A

An azeotrope is a non-ideal binary liquid mixture. Low boiling azeotropes are more common. At the minimum or maximum BP azeotropic composition, the liquid and vapor have the same composition and cannot be separated by distillation. Changing the distillation pressure can move or eliminate the azeotrope.

64
Q

Describe the technique used for determining the composition of distillate fractions

A

RI spectroscopy is used because toluene and cyclohexane have significantly different RI’s, and the RI of a solution made of both can be used to determine percent composition.

65
Q

What are the two types of GC columns? Describe them.

A

Packed
made of tubing packed with small, uniform size, inert support coated with a thin film of nonvolatile liquid
Capillary
made of fused silica capillary tube coated in the interior wall with polymer
give better separations and can separate complex mixtures containing many compounds, but they require more sensitive detectors.

66
Q

What are the two types of GC detectors? Describe them.

A

TC (thermal conductivity)
works with a packed column
the column gas flow cools a heated filament and the change in temperature causes a change in electrical resistance. The difference between that and the reference (only the gas) is used
FID (flame ionization detector)
works with a capillary column
the sample is burned in a H2 flame creating ions that cause the flame to conduct current, resulting in a signal

67
Q

What is the effect of GC column temperature on separation and resolution?

A

The separation of peaks is determined by the column temperature: as it increases, the peaks elute more rapidly and separation decreases. At low column temperatures, compounds with lower boiling points spend more time in the mobile phase than those with higher boiling points, so they move faster and come off the column sooner. At high column temperatures, all compounds spend more time in the mobile phase, and all move faster.

68
Q

What is the retention factor, Rf? How is it used?

A

Distance from starting line to center of sample/Distance from starting line to final solvent front (d/D). Rf can be used to identify unknown components.

69
Q

What is the relationship between compound polarity and Rf?

A

Lower the polarity the higher the Rf. The stronger a compound is bound to the adsorbent, the slower it moves up the TLC plate.

70
Q

What is the relationship between solvent/eluent polarity and Rf?

A

In general, the more polar the eluent, the more rapidly a given compound moves, and the higher the Rf. Polar compounds, which are strongly attracted to the absorbent, require polar eluents to attract them away from the adsorbent. Solvent polarity should be arranged so that it spreads compounds across plate.

71
Q

Describe common spot visualization methods.

A

Visualization is the detection of the spot on the plate when it is not not colored. The two most common methods are UV and I2 vapors. In UV , a fluorescent dye is present on the plate and the compound spots quench fluorescence and show up as a dark spot on a glowing plate. In the I2 method, the plate is placed in a container of I2 so that the vapors absorb on the spots and produce purple spots. A third technique is to spray visualization reagents on the plates, which will develop colors with specific types of compounds.

72
Q

What are the four solvent selection criteria for a recrystalllization?

A

The compound being purified must be insoluble in the solvent at RT.
The compound should be soluble in boiling solvent.
The solvent BP must be lower than the compound MP.
Abundant crystals should be recoverable from cool solvent.

73
Q

What is ‘oiling out”?

A

If the compound is above its MP when it begins to seperate from solution, it forms a molten “oil” phase rather than crystals. The ‘oil’ frequently refuses to form crystals after cooling to RT or ice bath, due to trapped solvent. However, a seed crystal of the pure compound sometimes initiates crystallization.
