chromatography Flashcards
1
Q
how does gas chromatography separate the compounds in a mixture
A
relative solubility in stationary phase
2
Q
what is meant by the term isoelectric point
A
the pH at which the amino acid exists as a zwitterion
3
Q
how will the Rf value of an amino acid be effected in a more polar solvent
A
it will increase because amino acids are more soluble in polar solvents so it would travel further up the plate.
