1. Draw a block diagram of a GC instrument, labeling all the important components. - Mobile Phase Reservoir, Sample Injector, Stationary Phase, Detector, and Read-out carrier gas - mobile phase In a GC experiment, a student injects 2.0 μL of a 20% ethanol/water solution into the GC. Calculate the weight of ethanol that has been injected. (The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/mL at 20° C.) - 0.789 g/ml -> 0.789 mg/μL 20% of 2.0 = 0.4 0.4 μL x 0.789 mg/μL = 0.3156 mg In general, how w...

carrier gas -Answer-mobile phase In a GC experiment, a student injects 2.0 μL of a 20% ethanol/water solution into the GC. Calculate the weight of ethanol that has been injected. (The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/mL at 20° C. -Answer-0.3156 mg In general, why will an increase in operating temperature/mobile phase flow rate cause a given peak to have a longer or a shorter retention time? -Answer-faster flow through column In general, will an increase in operating temperature/mobile phase...

Chem Ch. 2 Questions and Answers 100% Pass 1. What defines ions? - A. Particles with a net electrical charge not equal to zero - B. Atoms having gained electrons - C. Atoms having lost electrons - D. All of the above Explanation: Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net electrical charge. This definition encompasses both positively charged ions (cations) that have lost electrons and negatively charged ions (anions) that have gained electr...
