Question

QUESTION1 The identities of the individual peaks on the gas chromatogram will be determined by... O peak areas o component densities o component boiling points O peak heights QUESTION2 46 mm What is the peak area by triangulation of the peak shown below? 9.0 mm 23 mm 207 mm2 104 mm2 828 mm2 414 mm2 Not enough information is given. QUESTION 3 The apparatus used for the elimination reaction contains a drying tube. The purpose of this tube is... to prevent moisture from escaping the reaction flask. to keep atmospheric moisture from entering the reaction flask. to remove water from the solvent as it is added through the tube. to prevent bumping by the reaction materials in the flask.

Explanation / Answer

Ans 1 : component boiling points

The component boiling points determine the identities of the individual peaks on the gas chromatogram.

The high boiling point leads to a high retention time of the compound , whereas a lower boiling point leads to lesses retention time.
