The number of carbon atoms in a material under analysis; plotted against chromatographic retention volume for compound identification.
Industry:Chemistry
A device to measure and record the weight of sediment (solid particles settled out of a liquid) versus time; used to determine particle sizes of fine solids.
Industry:Chemistry
A form of gas-liquid chromatography in which the eluting solvent is changed with time, either by gradually mixing a second solvent of greater eluting power with the first, less powerful solvent, or by a gradual change in pH or other property.
Industry:Chemistry
A faithful carbon-film, mold of a specimen surface (for example, powders, bones, or crystals) which is thin enough to be studied by electron microscopy.
Industry:Chemistry
The equilibrium between the forward movement of a sample’s liquid-sediment boundary and reverse diffusion during centrifugation; used in molecular-weight determinations.
Industry:Chemistry
A method of measuring the moisture content of a gas in which a known volume of gas is passed through a suitable desiccant, such as phosphorus pentoxide or silica gel, and the change in weight of the desiccant is observed.
Industry:Chemistry
In gas chromatography, a gas used as an eluant for extracting the sample from the column as the gas passes through. Also known as eluant gas.
Industry:Chemistry
The rate of movement of the liquid-sediment boundary in the sample holder during centrifugation; used in molecular-weight determinations.
Industry:Chemistry
That branch of quantitative analytical chemistry in which a desired constituent is converted, usually by precipitation or combustion, to a pure compound or element, of definite known composition, and is weighed; in a few cases a compound or element is formed which does not contain the constituent but bears a definite mathematical relationship to it.
