An analysis of acid mixture was conducted using reversed-phase liquid chromatography with 20 mL/min flowrates and 10 cm column length. The retention time of Y acid was 4.4 min with a width of 1.6 min. While for acid Z, the retention time recorded was 6.8 min with a 1.2 min-width baseline. A non-retained compound appeared at 0.8 min after injection. Calculate the capacity factor (k') for acid Z i) Find the resolution of acid Y and Z ii) Determine the average theoretical plates in the column

In a reverse-phase separation, a solute was found to have a retention time of 19.6 min, while an unretained peak had a retention time of 1.45 min when the mobile phase was 20/80 v/v% methanol/water. (b) Calculate the k’ for the solute. (c) Calculate the new k’ if the mobile phase is changed to 60/40 methanol/water assuming identical void volume. (d) Calculate a solvent composition that would bring k’ from initial value to a value of 1.20 using tetrahydrofuran/water mobile phase rather than 20/80 v/v % methanol/water.

You are trying to separate a sample with 2 components: X and Y with GC. X has a lower boiling point than Y. Which one has a higher retention time? What is the most common way to increase retention of analytes in gas chromatography?
The write-up says “A C18-silica column is used in this experiment, a 0.46 x 15 cm column with 5-µm particles. Equilibrate the column with 20 empty column volumes of 0.010 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) at a flow rate of 1.2 mL/min before beginning chromatography.” Show the calculation for how much mobile phase you would use (volume) and how long it will take to equilibrate the column.
The figure below shows a typical separation of several fat-soluble vitamins by HPLC. The x-axis is retention time in minutes. From the graph try to estimate retention times for peaks 2 and 3. Retention time peak 2 = Retention time peak 3 = Assume that w1/2 is 0.15 minutes for peak 2 and 0.16 minutes for peak 3. Assume that tm is 2.00 minutes. How much time does gamma-tocopherol spend in the stationary phase? From tr and w1/2 find N for the peak that elutes first. From tr and w1/2 find the resolution of peaks 2 and 3 Calculate α for these peaks. If the flow rate for the column is 1.2 mL/minute what is the retention volume for peak 4?
