1. Retention time (tR) is a measure of how long a compound is retained on a stationaryphase in column in column chromatography. In TLC, Rf was a measure of how long thecompound was retained on the stationary phase. What is the relationship between tR and Rf?

2. What would be the order of elution if one separated the pigments of spinach on columnchromatography?

3. What if any would you have to change in terms of the mobile phase if you wanted toactually perform the column chromatography in order to separate the pigments of spinachcompare to the one used for the TLC Experiment? Explain.

4. Why is it important to keep the solvent level above the stationary phase? What wouldhappen if one lets the solvent get much lower than the alumina stationary phase?

Using a table of standard electrode potentials, decide which of the following statements is completely true.

A. Cu2+ can oxidize H2, and Fe can reduce Mn2+ .

B. Ni2+ can oxidize Cu2+, and Fe2+ can reduce H+ .

C. Fe2+ can oxidize H2, and Fe2+ can reduce Au3+ .

D. Br2 can oxidize Ni, and H2 can reduce Mn2+ .

E. H + can oxidize Fe, and Ni can reduce Br2.

Answer: E.. but why? can you explain why A-D are incorrect and why E is right. I know it has something to do with how they are positioned on the standard reduction potential list, but I dont understand the concept, which I will need to know for my exam. thank you!
