Substances that are ionic or that can be derivatized to form ions. |
|
|
Term

|
|
Term
What is ion-pair chromatography used for? |
|
Definition
Small organic and inorganic ions. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
the solvent composition is held constant throughout the elution. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
two or more solvents are used and the composition of the mobile phase is changed continuously or in steps as the separation proceeds. |
|
|
Term
Define stop flow injection |
|
Definition
the flow of solvent is stopped, a fitting at the head of the column is removed, and the sample is injected directly onto the head of the column. The fitting is then replaced and pumping is resumed. |
|
|
Term
Define reveresed-phase packing |
|
Definition
is a nonpolar packing that is used in partition chromatography with a relatively polar mobile phase. |
|
|
Term
Define normal phase packing |
|
Definition
the stationary phase is polar and the mobile phase is relatively nonpolar. |
|
|
Term
Define ion pairing chromatography |
|
Definition
a large organic counter-ion is added to the mobile phase as an ion-pairing reagent. Separation is achieved either through partitioning of the neutral ion-pair or as a result of electrostatic interactions between the ions in solution and charges on the stationary phase resulting from adsorption of the organic counter-ion. |
|
|
Term
Define Ion chromatography |
|
Definition
the stationary phase is an ion-exchange resin, and detection is ordinarily accomplished by a conductivity detector. |
|
|
Term
Define bulk property detector |
|
Definition
responds to some property of the mobile phase (such as thermal or electrical conductivity) that is altered by the presence of analytes. |
|
|
Term
Define Solute property detector |
|
Definition
responds to some property of analytes, such as absorption or fluorescence. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
a process for removing dissolved gases from a solution by sweeping the liquid with a stream of fine bubbles of an inert gas of low solubility. |
|
|
Term
Describe the fundamental difference between ion-exchange and size exclusion chromatography. |
|
Definition
In size-exclusion chromatography separations are based upon the size, and to some extent the shape, of molecules with little interactions between the stationary phase and the sample components occurring.
In ion-exchange chromatography, in contrast, separations are based upon ion-exchange reactions between the stationary phase and the components of the sample in the mobile phase. |
|
|
Term
The length of the column L is the distance from: |
|
Definition
the sample entrance to the detector |
|
|
Term
The purpose in running a non retained species on a column is to measure: |
|
Definition
The average rate of migration of the mobile phase |
|
|
Term
As the plate count, N, increases for a column: |
|
Definition
the column efficiency increases |
|
|
