He wonders if the in is a pure substance or a mixture. The ink appears to be uniform throughout, but separates when a chromatography experimer is performed on it, leaving multiple marks of different colors along the chromatography paper. Using his observations of the properties of the ink, the student can classify it as a heterogeneous mixture. solution. compound. element.arrow_forwardGas chromatography is an analytical technique that is used to separate and analyze samples that can be vaporized without decomposing. The chromatography column contains a substance that helps separate the sample being analyzed. The sample is vaporized and carried through the column by an inert gas. As the mixture moves through the column, the compounds are separated based on how much they interact with the substance in the column. The molecules of each compound are detected as they exit the column, and a peak for each compound is produced on a chromatogram. The area under each peak on the chromatogram is proportional to the concentration of the compound in the sample. A chromatogram produced by separating a mixture of compounds is shown. Time to Go Through Column Based on the information given, which of the following statements about the chromatogram is most likely true? A The three peaks each represent a different element.

- When answering this problem, report the answer with the appropriate number of significant figures. When entering units, use proper abbreviated units with proper capitalization. A beverage drink mix sample is prepared by mixing a packet of beverage powder in a gallon (3.78 L) of water. A sample for analysis is prepared by diluting 10.00 mL of this solution in a 50.0 mL volumetric flask. When measured using a colorimeter, this diluted solution has an absorbance of 0.349. The calibration curve for the experiment yielded a linear fit of y = 21655x+0.0318 and an R2 value of 0.9911. Determine the molar concentration of food dye in the analyzed sample.
