Introduction to Separation Methods

Chromatography: Separation by Polarity

Description

Chromatography separates compounds by how they divide between a stationary phase and a mobile phase. The stationary phase is the material that holds the compounds for a time. The mobile phase is the solvent that carries the solutes to be analyzed.

In column chromatography, a mixture flows through...

Transcript

The main components of any chromatography system are the stationary phase, the mobile phase, and the analyte.

The surface on which the compounds are separated is the stationary phase. The analytes are the solutes, and the solvent carrying the solute forward is the mobile phase.

Chromatography is used to separate solutes in a mixtur...
