Two commonly used chromatography methods in labs are Nickel and streptavidin resin based colums. Explain which type of chromatography-ion exchange, size-exclusion, or affinity-these are, as well as their seperation mechanisms at a molecular level.
In color chromatography of plant pigments, what complications would a dried-out column (solvent level is below the top of the silica) introduce to the elution and isolation of pigments?
One method for the quantitative determination of the concentration of constituents in a sample analyzed by gas chromatography is area normalization. Here, complete elution of all the sample constituents is necessary. The area of each peak is then measured and corrected for differences in detector response to the different eluates. This correction involves dividing the area by an empirically determined correction factor. The concentration of the analyte is found from the ratio of its corrected area to the total corrected area of all peaks. For a chromatogram containing three peaks, the relative areas were found to be 16.4, 45.2 and 30.2, in order of increasing retention time. Calculate the percentage of each compound if the relative detector responses were 0.60, 0.78 and 0.88, respectively.

1. From spinach, the chromatographic analysis will yield two major substances: (a) B-carotene (C40H56), which will separate from the spinach mixture to form a yellow band, and (b) chlorophyll A (CSSH72MGN4OS), which will separate from the mixture to form a green band. i. Describe the characteristics and draw structures of these molecules. ii. From the spectrophotometric analysis, what wavelength (Amax) would you expect ß-carotene (C40H56) to absorb? What wavelength would chlorophyll A (CssH72MgN4O5) absorb?

You have obtained a gas chromatogram of a two component mixture of compounds A and B. The height of peak A is 3.84 cm. and the width at half height is 1 cm. The height of peak B is 3.49 cm. and the width at half height is 1.36 cm. The percentage of a component in the mixture is proportional to peak area. Estimate peak areas by multiplying height by width at half height. What was the percentage of compound B in the mixture?
