B. There was big news all over the internet that the Ponkan oranges that were imported from one of our neighboring counties are heavily contaminated with pesticides. Your lab was asked to analyze these samples using a gas chromatographic procedure. 9. Substances Chlorobenzilate and BFB have retention times of 17.1 and 17.60 min, respectively, on a 300-cm column. An unretained species pass through the column in 1.30 min. The peak widths (at base) for Chlorobenzilate and BFB are 0.11 and 0.21 min, respectively. Calculate (a) Capacity Factor for compound both compounds, (b) Selectivity Factor (c) Resolution of the column and d) Average Number of Theoretical Plates

You are attempting to analyze samples for the presence of opioids using TLC. Use the internet to find a suitable method. Give the stationary phase, mobile phase, and detection technique used in the method and the URL of the website where you found the information.
Answer the following questions.
Which statement is true? Statement 1: In chromatography, the compound mixture moves along with the mobile phase through the stationary phase and the components get separated depending on the degree of interaction and adhesion Statement 2: Compound A is more soluble in the mobile phase compared to compound B. Thus, compound A would most probably have a higher Rf value.
There were 2 spots on the TLC that did not match up with any of the standards. What were the Rf values of these spots? Identify what these chemical species might be and draw their structures. Solvent was 3:1:1 n-butanol/acetic acid/water. First plate is TLC plate 1. Second plate is TLC plate 2.
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.
4. a. What physical property of a compound predicts whether that compound travels slowly or rapidly through a Gas Chromatograph? b. Suppose you injected a sample of 25% compound A. (bp 80 °C), 5% compound B (bp. 40°C) and 70% Compound C (bp 60 °C) on a GC. inject Circle the Chromatogram that actually fits that scenario and cross the other one out. On the correct GC, label the peaks on the chromatogram with the compounds A, B, and C. inject
