Question 93 - In thin layer chromatography (TLC), let retention factor Rf = (distance traveled by solute) / (distance traveled by solvent). Silica gel is used as stationary phase which is more polar than the hexane solvent as mobile phase. If the Rf values of 3 solutes A, B and C are 1.5, 0.75 and 1 respectively, compare the polarities of A, B and C with reasons.

Answer / kangchuentat

Polarities : A < C < B. A is least polar since it travels farthest with the mobile phase, whereas B is most polar as it is attracted to the stationary phase and travels least.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.19 : In the purchase of a unit of engineering office, a loan has been made to a bank with the following details : Term N = 30 years; interest rate R = 8.07 % / year; security : primary residence; present value pv = $450000; salary = $75000 / year or $56000 / year after tax. (a) Let the discounted present value PV = [ 1 - 1 / (1 + r) ^ n ] / r for arrears, where r = interest rate of discount, n = number of payment, ^ = symbol for power. If the loan repayment was made monthly : (i) calculate the value of r where r = R / k and R is in decimal value; (ii) find the value of n where n = kN; (iii) estimate the value of k where k = number of repayment per year; (iv) calculate the value of PV based on the formula of discounted present value. (b) Calculate the monthly repayment of the loan, MR based on the following formula : pv = PV x MR. (c) Find the percentage of salary remains after paying the loan every month.

If v = velocity, prove that m < v > = < p >. (b) Lande g-factor is given by Gj = Gl [ J (J + 1) - S (S + 1) + L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ] + Gs [ J (J + 1) + S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ]. If Gl = 1 and under approximation of Gs = 2, prove by calculation that Gj = (3/2) + [ S (S + 1) - L (L + 1) ] / [ 2J (J + 1) ].
