In a gas chromatography experiment, a mixture of two compounds (a and b) was separated for analysis. a chart recorder that fed paper at a constant rate of 100 mm. per minute was used to record the chromatogram, and a mark was made on the chart at the time the sample was injected. the first peak on the chromatogram corresponds to compound a, and that peak was observed at a distance of 5.83 cm from the sample injection point, and it had a height of 3.52 cm and a width at half-height of 1.25 cm. the peak corresponding to b was observed at a distance of 7.96 cm from the injection point, and it had a height of 3.34 cm and a width at half-height of 1.06 cm. what was the retention time for compound b (in seconds)? (enter your answer as a number only.)

47.76 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

Rate = 100 mm per minute

Distance of compound A from the Injection point = 5.83 cm = 58.3 mm

Distance of compound B from the Injection point = 7.96 cm = 79.6 mm

Now,

The retention time =

thus,

For the compound B

The retention time =

or

The retention time = 0.796 minute

also,

1 minute = 60 seconds

therefore,

0.796 minutes = 0.796 × 60 seconds = 47.76 seconds

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.

answer: i have one answer

acids are substances that ionize (break off) in an aqueous solution to produce hydrogen (h+) ions

explanation:

hope this and sorry i could only come up with one answer!
