Chem Sep midterm Flashcards
2 MAJOR FORCES OF SEPERATION
Sepeartive and dispersive transport
Essential feature of transport
redistribution of components in space
Rules/limit of seperation
1) No absolute separations
a. Separation limitations and Detection limits
Limits in separation include
a. Physical (eg controlling t or p)
b. Chem limits (equilibrium)
2 major forms of entropy
Mixing and dilution
Seperative transport of a component into different regions
Delta(H) - T Delta(S) - see quiz
What is chemical potential and what does it depend on
Gibbs free energy change upon entering a system - depends on intrinsic affinity to the phase (enthalpy) and solution (diffusion/concentration termenetropy? (RTLn(C))
Stronger affinity menas what for enthalpy
Lower
What are the laws of thermodynamics
0) Heat is transferable - transitive
1) Energy can’t be created or destroyed - just transferred
2nd law : Entropy – total entropy of an isolated sys can never decrease over time – is constant if process is reversible
What is U - to
Q-w (heat transferred in vs work done
standard entropy vs entropy
standard entropy is a trait of the molecule while entropy of a reaction is something we calculate
Equation for change in entropy
Change in Q/T
For LLE -practice solving for Q
Uint vs u ext
mathematically equal (need to become 0) but different in unit abrupt whereas uext continuous
What is the distribution isotherm
Graph of concentration in one solvent vs concentration in another (so slope is K) - at one temperature - shows that for most concentrations - this is a lienar and predictable relationship (except when concentration too high
what is k
moles in stationary/moles in mp
Binomial distribution know it
What does craig appartus tell us about chroamtography
Tells us how it’s distributed - can’t give us shape and position however
Why is the Craig Apparatus and chroamtography able to separate compounds (what equations and relations make this so)
So if we think of our craig apparatus dist as gaussian peak - our mean is RP, and our stdev is ROOT(rpq) so we see our mean increases proportionally with R while our spread increases only with root R so our distance is increasing faster than the spread of our peaks
What are p and q in terms of k
p is k’/(1+k’) and q is 1/(1+k’) and k is just q/p
What is dead time a function of
column dimensions and mobile phase velocity
What is Rt based off of
column, mobile phase type and velocity, temperature and characteristic of the analyte
Dilution equation?
Delta(S) = nRln((Vfinal)/(Vinitial))
How do you get Vm and Vr in basic chromatography
= Ft so Ftm gets Vm, F*Tr gets Vr and can get adjusted retention volume as Vr - Vm
k = (in terms of RT)
adjusted RT/ TM
