Assertion : Chromatography in general in...

Assertion : Chromatography in general involves a mobile (a gas, a liquid or a supercritical fluid) and a stationary phase (like `Al_(2)O_(3)` column).
Reason : A component which is less soluble in stationary phase takes longer time to travel through it than the component which is more soluble in stationary phase.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion .

B

if both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
A component which is quite soluble in the sationary phase, takes longer time to travel through it than a component which is not very soluble in the stationary phase but very soluble in the mobile phase.

Assertion: Paper chromatography is a type of partition chromatography. Reason: Moving phase is liquid and stationary phase is solid.

Assertion:At equilibrium , vapour phase will be always rich in component which is more volatile Reason : The composition of vapour phase in equilibrium with the solution is determined by the partial pressures of the components

Assertion (A) . Components of a mixture of red and blue inks can be separated by distributing the components between stationary and mobile phases in paper chromatography Reason (R). The coloured components of inks migrate at different rates because paper selectively retains different components according to the difference in their partition between the two phases.

Column chromatography involves separation of a mixture over a column of adsorbent (stationary phase) packed in a glass tube. Depending upon the degree of adsorption complete separation takes places . In the given column, three coloured bands x, y, z are formed . Identify the correct statement .

During a column chromatography through Al_(2)O_(3) column, a mixture of components A,B and C is passed through the column. On adding eluant, compound 'A' is eluted first then 'B' and in the end 'C'. Which of the following statements regarding the components is correct ?

Figure, shows a stationary wave between two fixed points P and Q Which point (s) of 1,2 and 3 are in phase with the point X ?

Assertion : Azeotropic mixtures are formed only by non - ideal solutions and they may have boiling points either greater than both the components or less than both the compontents. Reason : The composition of the vapour phase is same as that of the liquid phase of an azeotropic mixture.

Assertion. The atmospheric concentration of CO_(2) at which photosynthesis just compensates for respiration is referred to as CO_(2) compensation point. Reason. CO_(2) -compensation point is reached when the amount of CO_(2) uptake is less than that generated through respiration because the level of CO_(2) is more than that required for achieving CO_(2) -compensation point.

Alkali metals oxide are obtained by combustion of the metals.Although Na normally gives Na_2O_2 ,it will take up further oxygen at elevated pressure and temperature to form NaO_2 .The per and superoxides of the heavier alkalies can also be prepared by passing stoichiometric amounts of oxygen into their solution in liquid ammonia. The different alkali metal oxides can be distinguished by reaction with water.The superoxides reacts with CO_2 and give oxygen gas.The stability of per and superoxides is based upon that larger cation can stablise larger anion, due to larger lattice energy. Alkali metals dissolve in liquid ammonia.Dilute solutions are dark blue in colour but as the concentration increases above 3M, the colour changes to copper bronze and the solution acquires the metallic lusture due to the formation of metal ions clusters.The solutions of alkali metals in liquid ammonia are good conductors of electricity due to the presence of ammoniated cations and ammoniated electrons.However, the conductivity decreases as the concentrations increases, since ammoniated electrons and ammoniated cation associate. On dissolving smaller (less than 3M) amount of sodium metal in liquid ammonia at low temperature , which one of the following does not occur ?
