Consider the following pairs of mode and the property it exploits.

Reversed phase - Polarity

Ion exchange - Charge

Size exclusion - Molecular size

Affinity - Volatility

How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched?

  • A.All four
  • B.Only three
  • C.Only one
  • D.Only two

Answer: B

The first three are correct and the fourth is not, so three match. Affinity chromatography exploits a specific biological interaction with an immobilised ligand, and volatility plays no part in any liquid chromatographic mode - it is the basis of gas chromatography instead. Each mode is named after the property it separates by, which makes the family easy to hold once that is noticed. A single measurement chosen to respond to the one asymmetry beats several that respond to shared behaviour.
