BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERING INSTRUMENTATION - EXAMPLE 29.4 : The resolution of separation, Rs for chromatography is given by the formula Rs = (difference in retention time) / (average width at the base). In a chromatogram, 3 peaks a, b and c are found. Average widths W at the bases of the solutes are : Wa = 20 s, Wb = 40 s, Wc = 30 s. Resolutions of separation, Rs for solutes b and c in comparison to a are 2 and 4 respectively. The differences in retention times T for b and c in comparison to a are (Tb - Ta) and (Tc - Ta), Ta = Tc - Tb : (a) Form 2 equations involving Rs as a function of Wa, Wb, Wc, Ta, Tb and Tc. (b) Find the values of Ta, Tb and Tc.
BIOCHEMICAL ENGINEERING INSTRUMENTATION - ANSWER 29.4 : Reference formula Rs = (difference in retention time) / (average width at the base) is used. (a) First equation : Rs = (Tb - Ta) / [ (Wa + Wb) / 2 ] = 2 (Tb - Ta) / (Wa + Wb). Second equation : Rs = (Tc - Ta) / [ (Wa + Wc) / 2 ] = 2 (Tc - Ta) / (Wa + Wc). (b) Substitute Ta = Tc - Tb, Wa = 20 s, Wb = 40 s and Wc = 30 s into first equation and second equation. First equation : Rs = 2 = 2 [ Tb - (Tc - Tb) ] / (20 + 40) = (2 Tb - Tc) / 30, 2 Tb - Tc = 60. Second equation : Rs = 4 = 2 [ Tc - (Tc - Tb) ] / (20 + 30) = Tb / 25, Tb = 100 s. Substitute Tb = 100 s into first equation gives 2 Tb - Tc = 2 x 100 - Tc = 200 - Tc = 60, then Tc = 200 - 60 = 140 s. Then Ta = Tc - Tb = 140 - 100 = 40 s.

Question 104 - In photoelectrical effect analysis of quantum chemistry, let E = kinetic energy of electron, p = intensity of UV light, f = frequency of UV light. According to Classical Theory, E = c for all values of f, E = mp. According to Quantum Theory, E = c for all values of p, E = mf + c. In a graph, m and c are constants where m is slope and c is y intercept. If m = 2 and c = 3 with similar value of E : (a) find the value of p according to Classical Theory; (b) find the value of f according to Quantum Theory.
