A student researcher performed a chromatographic separation of caffeine and aspartame. The retention time for caffeine, te, was found to be 200.8 s with a baseline peak width, we, of 16.1 s. The retention time for aspartame, ta, was 258.7 s with a baseline peak width, wa, of 20.6 s. The retention time for the unretained solvent methanol was 44.2 s. Calculate the average plate height, H, in micrometers for this separation, given that it was performed on a 22.1 cm long column.

A method of quantitative determination of the concentration of constituentsof a sample analyzed by gas chromatography is area normalization. Thiscomplete elution of all sample constituents is required. Thearea of each peak is measured and corrected for the detector response to the diffe- renteseluatos. This correction involves dividing the area by an empiricalcorrection factorDetermined. The concen ration of the analyte is found from the ratio between itscorrected and the total corrected area of all peaks. For a chromatogram containing threerelative areas were determined as 16.4; 45,2; and 30.2, in the order ofincreased retention time. Calculate the percentage of each compound if therelative responses from the detector are 0.65, 0.73 and 0.85, respectively.
