In a preliminary experiment, a solution containing 0.0837 mg benzene and 0.0666 mg toluene was analyzed by gas chromatography and gave peak areas of 495 for benzene and 367 for toluene. After this, the amount of unknown was determined by adding 0.0561 mg of benzene to a solution containing an unknown amount of toluene. The peak areas determined for benzene and toluene in this analysis were 643 and 515 respectably. How many mg of toluene are present in the sample?

Next, 2.00 mL of 9.63 mM S was added to 10.00 mL of a solution of unknown concentration of X, and the mixture was diluted to 25.0mL. Chromatographic analysis of this solution produced peak areas of 4822 for X and 4099 for S. What was the concentration of 5 (in mM) of the 25.0mL solution?
A chromatographic column is eluted with a solution containing a mixture of two components, X and Y. The chemical affinity of X for the stationary phase is less than that of Y and the chemical affinity for X for the mobile is greater than that of Y. Which substance will be eluted first? Explain your answer.
You were analyzing a mixture of volatile solvents using Gas Chromatography and found out that two peaks are unresolved (not well-separated) using your initial program. Which method can you use to obtain a chromatogram with well separated peaks?
In a chromatographic analysis, a solution containing 0.0837M toluene and 0.0666M xylene resulted in peak areas of Atoluene= 423 and Axylene= 347. To analyze an unknown sample, 10.0mL of 0.146M xylene was added to 10.0mL of an unknown toluene-containing solution, and the mixture was diluted to 25.0mL. This mixture gave a chromatogram with peak areas of Atoluene= 553 and Axylene= 582. What was the concentration of toluene in the unknown solution?

Below are the gas chromatography results of two separate distillations of the same 1:1 mixture of ethanol and 1-butanol. One sample was obtained from the first fraction of a simple distillation and one sample was obtained from the first fraction of a fractional distillation. Identify the peaks in the chromatographs. Discuss the conclusions you can make regarding simple distillation compared with fractional distillation. Which method was more successful?
Iman has a mixture of two compounds A and B. A is a protein, and B is a lipid. He plans to separate the mixture using a column chromatography technique. He packed the column with amino bonded with siloxane material and use a mixture of 20:80 of water: hexane as the mobile phase. i) Sketch the apparatus set up for the chromatographic technique used by Iman. Use the correct chromatographic terminologies to label all of the apparatus, materials, and phases. ii) Predict the sequence of elution when the mixture was loaded onto the separation column. Justify your answer. iii) After the first compound was eluted, Iman discovered that the second compound was taking too long to pass through the column. Please suggest any strategies that could be used to aid the elution process.
3. A student administered ibuprofen to a lab mice orally. She would like to find out the amount of ibuprofen in blood plasma at a specific time using HPLC. The chromatographic peak areas after 2 hours, 4 hours, and 8 hours are 38.34, 20.5, and 14.95 respectively. What is the concentration of ibuprofen in the plasma at each aforementioned time?

A student researcher performed a chromatographic separation of caffeine and aspartame. The retention time for caffeine, tc, was found to be 209.6 s with a baseline peak width, w., of 14.4 s. The retention time for aspartame, ta, was 260.0 s with a baseline peak width, wa, of 21.2 s. The retention time for the unretained solvent methanol was 49.2 s. Calculate the average plate height, H, in micrometers for this separation, given that it was performed on a 22.1 cm long column. H = um %3D Calculate the resolution, R, for this separation using the widths of the peaks. R = Calculate the resolution if the number of theoretical plates were to increase by a factor of 2. R2N =
When 1.06 mmol of pentan-1-ol and 1.53 mmol of hexan-1-ol were separated by gas chromatography, they have the relative areas of peaks 922 and 1570 units, respectively. When 0.57 mmol of pentan-1-ol was added to an unknown sample containing hexan-1-ol, as areas related to the chromatographic peaks were 843 and 816 respectively. How much hexan-1-ol is in the sample?
6.0 mL of cyclohexanol, 8 mL of 85% phosphoric acid, and 10 drops of sulfuric acid are added to a 50-mL round-bottom flask with boiling chips, and the mixture is distilled into an ice-cooled receiver. The distillate is in the form of a colorless bi-phasic mixture. The cyclohexene upper layer is removed from the water layer, and dried over anhydrous calcium chloride. Isolated is cyclohexene as a clear and colorless foul-smelling liquid. Weighing data is given below. Gross mass: 51.24 g Tare mass: 48.04 g Product mass: 3.2g Question: Calculate the theoretical mass of the cyclohexene product, bearing in mind that the cyclohexanol starting material was measured by volume, not by mass (so you must use the density of cyclohexanol to convert milliliters to grams, before calculating the number of moles). Calculate the percent yield of cyclohexene obtained.
