Nonpolar aromatic compounds were separated by HPLC on an octadecyl(C18) bonded phase. The mobile phase was 65 vol% methanol in water. How would the retention times of these aromatic compounds be affected if 90 vol% methanol was used instead? The retention times will be longer in 90 vol% methanol. The retention times will double. The retention times will not change. The retention times will be shorter in 90 vol% methanol.

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.
