Question 94 - 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.
Answer 94 - 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 81 - (a) In natural gas pipe sizing, the length of the pipe from the gas source metre to the farthest appliances is 60 feet. The maximum capacities for typical metallic pipes of 60 feet in length are : 66 cubic feet per hour for pipe size of 0.5 inches; 138 cubic feet per hour for pipe size of 0.75 inches; 260 cubic feet per hour for pipe size of 1 inch. By using the longest run method : (i) Find the best pipe size needed for the capacity of 75 cubic feet per hour. (ii) Estimate the suitable range of capacities for the pipe size of 1 inch. (b) The maximum capacities for typical metallic pipes of 50 feet in length are : 73 cubic feet per hour for pipe size of 0.5 inches; 151 cubic feet per hour for pipe size of 0.75 inches; 285 cubic feet per hour for pipe size of 1 inch. By using the branch method find the best pipe size needed for the capacity of 75 cubic feet per hour when the length of the pipe from the gas source metre to the appliance is 52 feet.
