The boiling point of 1,3 butadiene is -4.4 DC & the boiling point of Pentane is 36.1 DC. Then how come Pentane elute before 1,3 BD in GC analysis?

Answer Posted / surinder kumar

Gas -Chromatography is based on the adsorption mechanism i.e.
if a substance is strongly adsorbed on the columns then that substance will get eluted in the last moments.
as 1,3 Butadiene gets adsorbed strongly to the columns due to its resonating structures(charged,polar-polar interactions,polar-non polar interactions due to neutral structure)so it gets eluted later than pentane which has no such interactions with the columns phase

I have compare C2H2-air and C2H2-N2O flame AAS on determination calcium. Both use same range of std to plot calibration curve. (2-6ppm) When i measure the sample with phosphate, KCl and LaCl, C2H2-N2O flame give false positive result, around 0.5ppm. When i measure the sample with phosphste, KCl and EDTA. C2H2-N2O flame also give 0.5ppm false positive. But both above mentioned sample would not give false positive when measured by C2H2-air flame. What is the reason?
