22-2 What is Chromatography ?
Mobile Phase : the solvent moving through the column : either liquid or gas Stationary Phase: the one that stays in place inside the column : most commonly a viscous liquid chemically bonded to the inside of a capillary tube or onto the surface of solid particles packed in the column. Eluent : fluid entering the column Eluate : fluid emerging from the end of the column Packed column : a column filled with particles of stationary phase Open column : a narrow, hollow capillary with stationary phase coated on the inside walls

22-5 Why Bands Spread
- A band of solute invariably spreads apart as it travels through a column
and emerges at the detector with a standard deviation σ.
- The observed variance (σ2obs) = σ1
2 + σ22 + ··· = Σ σi
2
σi2 : the variance from each contributing mechanisms to bands
broadening
* variance is additive but σ is not.
- Variance due to injection : (variance of final bandwidth)
* solute can not be applied to column in an infinitesimally thin zone,
so the band has a finite width even before it begins spreading
∆t : initial bandwidth at injection (measured in time unit)
σinjection2 : final bandwidth
- Variance due to detection :
* a time ∆t is required for the sample to pass through the detector.

22-5 Broadening outside the column
- Over the last 30 years, an enormous amount of theoretical and experimental
effort has been devoted to developing quantitative relationships describing the
effects of experimental variables on plate heights for various types of columns.
- But it is apparent that none of these is entirely adequate to explain the comple
physical interactions and effects that lead to zone broadening and thus lower
column efficiencies.

-This equation tells three mechanisms of band broadening that are : i) independent of flow rate ii) inversely proportional to flow rate and iii) proportional to flow rate, Changing column and stationary phase changes the value of A,B,C
A = 1.65 mm, B= 25.8 mm mL/min C = 0.0236 mm min/mL
The slower the flow rate, the more time is spent on the column and the more longitudinal diffusion occurs.
Solute continuously diffuses away from the concentrated center of its zone.
Why Bands Spread ? : 1) Longitudinal Diffusion
- Solute spreads out along the length of the column – mainly by diffusion
in the mobile phase.
-Solute continuously diffuses away from the concentrated center of its zone.
-The greater the flow rate, the less time is spent on the column and
the less longitudinal diffusion occurs.

Why Bands Spread ? : 2) Finite Equilibration Time Between Phases
- Finite time is required for solute to equilibrate between the mobile and
stationary phases.
- However, while some solute is stuck in the stationary phase, the remainder
in the mobile phase moves forward, thereby resulting in spreading of the
overall zone of solute.

- Because some flow paths are longer than others, molecules entering the column

22-5 Advantages of Open Tubular Columns
- For a given pressure, flow rate is proportional to the cross sectional area of the column and inversely proportional to the column length, Q = f (A, L) when P is fixed. - Particles in a packed column resist flow of the mobile phase, so the linear flow rate can not be as fast as the open tubular column. - At a given P and Q, the open tubular column can be made 100 times longer (for example) than the packed column. -If plate height is the same, the longer column provides 100 times more plates, yielding 10 times more resolution.

22-5 Advantages of Open Tubular Columns
* Characteristics of Open Tubular Column 1. Higher resolution: i) H is reduced because no multiple flow path occurs ii) smaller H and longer column due to higher flow rate at the same given pressure provides more theoretical plates. 2. Shorter analysis time 3. Increased sensitivity to small quantities of analyte 4. lower sample capacity not useful for preparative separation
22-5 A Touch of Reality: Asymmetric Bandshapes
i) Ideal isotherm a symmetric peak
ii) Fronting : overloaded column (so much solute applied)
- K=Cs/Cm increases with increasing solute loading.
(“like dissolves like”) the stationary phase resembles solute.
- The band emerges gradually but ends abruptly.
Three common isotherms (Cs vs. Cm ) and their resulting bandshapes
iii) Tailing: a long tail occurs when small quantities of solute are retained
more strongly than large quantities. : Silanization reduces tailing (to prevent hydrogen bonding between polar solute and solid support containing hydroxyl groups)
Three common isotherms (Cs vs. Cm ) and their resulting bandshapes
iv) Distortions of this kind (Fronting and Tailing) is undesirable because they lead to poorer separation and less reproducible elution time.
