what is the difference between mobile phase and stationary phase in chromatography?

Phases. Chromatography relies on two different 'phases': the mobile phase is the solvent that moves through the paper, carrying different substances with it. the stationary phase is contained on the paper and does not move through it.

Thin Layer chromatography is a chromatographic technique based on solid-liquid adsorption of molecules. Column chromatography uses a column packed with a matrix that is used to separate molecules mainly based on their size, affinity or its charge.

Abstract. Gel filtration (GF) chromatography separates proteins solely on the basis of molecular size. Separation is achieved using a porous matrix to which the molecules, for steric reasons, have different degrees of access--i.e., smaller molecules have greater access and larger molecules are excluded from the matrix.

Mobile phase (eluent) The mobile phase or eluent is a solvent or a mixture of solvents used to move the compounds through the column. ... The eluent is optimized in small scale pretests, often using thin layer chromatography (TLC) with the same stationary phase. There is an optimum flow rate for each particular separation.

The main difference between normal phase and reverse phase chromatography is that normal phase chromatography has a very polar stationary phase and a non-polar mobile phase whereas reverse phase chromatography has a non-polar stationary phase and a polar mobile phase.

What Is Chromatography? plate and a mobile liquid phase to separate the components of the mixture. causing the sample to become distributed between the stationary phase and the moving liquid phase. visualized by placing the plates under ultraviolet light or spraying the plate with a chemical reagent.

Gas chromatography. ... GC is used to separate complex mixtures. It is much better at this than thin-layer or paper chromatography. This is because it is more sensitive - allowing the determination not only of what chemicals are in the mixture, but also how much of each chemical there is.

Ion chromatography, a form of liquid chromatography, measures concentrations of ionic species by separating them based on their interaction with a resin. ... As an ion extraction liquid, known as eluent, runs through the column, the absorbed ions begin separating from the column.

Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is a chromatography technique used to separate non-volatile mixtures. Thin-layer chromatography is performed on a sheet of glass, plastic, or aluminium foil, which is coated with a thin layer of adsorbent material, usually silica gel, aluminium oxide (alumina), or cellulose.

Gas chromatography. Gas chromatography (GC) is a common type of chromatography used in analytical chemistry for separating and analyzing compounds that can be vaporized without decomposition.

Retention Factor Rf values and reproducibility can be affected by a number of different factors such as layer thickness, moisture on the TLC plate, vessel saturation, temperature, depth of mobile phase, nature of the TLC plate, sample size, and solvent parameters. These effects normally cause an increase in Rf values.

Chromatography terms. The analyte is the substance to be separated during chromatography. It is also normally what is needed from the mixture. Analytical chromatography is used to determine the existence and possibly also the concentration of analyte(s) in a sample.

Centrifugation separates the components of heterogeneous mixtures. These include liquids in liquids, solids in liquids, and solids and liquids in gases. Centrifugation uses centrifugal force to move dense components to the outside of the container. This causes the solid to settle more rapidly and completely.

Diode-Array Detection can be used to identify unknown peaks observed in chromatography. Diode-Array Detection (DAD) or Photodiode-Array Detection (PDA) is an analytical technique that can be used to determine the purity of an analyte or related impurity peak eluting during an HPLC separation.

Eluent - As Zhe noted "Eluent is a fancy name for solvent in chromatography." It can be a gas or a liquid. For TLC or HPLC a liquid is used. For GC a gas is used. Normal phase TLC - For normal phase TLC the stationary phase is polar and the mobile phase is typically non-polar or only moderately polar.

The main difference between the two types of refining processes lies in how the FFA are removed. Chemical refining removes the FFA in the neutralizing process while physical refining removes the FFA in the deodorizing process.

Both techniques are not alike in many respects, and the differences are glaring. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is meant to separate the solids and some liquids. ... Gas-liquid chromatography, on the other hand, is intended to separate gases. This technique uses gas as its mobile phase and liquid as the stationary phase.
