Question

(viii) For the separation of closely related compounds columns used are______ (a) short in length (b)of big diameter. (c)long​

Answer 1

Answer:

Separate Closely Related Compounds Using Ascentis Express F5 Columns

Answer 2

For the separation process, preferred Short in length.

Explanation:

For Column separation, there are many types that will be there,

Example:

• Column Adsorption

• Column Length chromatography etc...

While an explanation about this,

• Stronger electrostatic forces such as covalent or electrostatic chemical bonds play a vital role in the attraction between sorbent and sorbate. This bond is shorter in bond length
• A longer column will produce longer retention times but better separation. Unfortunately, if a component has too long a transit time in the column, there can be a diffusive effect that causes the peak width to broaden.

1. Economically, the separation of closely related compounds used are short in length.
2. A Big diameter is not suited to the separation process.
