JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2019 - 9th January Evening Slot - No. 21)
Item - I | Item - II | ||
---|---|---|---|
(A) | Benzaldehyde | (P) | Mobile phase |
(B) | Alumina | (Q) | Adsorbent |
(C) | Acetonitrile | (R) | Adsorbate |
Explanation
To determine the correct match between Item I and Item II, let's analyze each item and its corresponding match :
1. Benzaldehyde: Benzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde, which is typically considered as an adsorbate in chromatography. An adsorbate is a substance that is adsorbed on a surface.
2. Alumina: Alumina (Aluminum oxide) is well known for its use as an adsorbent in chromatography processes. An adsorbent is a material that adsorbs another substance.
3. Acetonitrile: Acetonitrile is an organic solvent often used as a mobile phase in chromatography. The mobile phase is the phase that moves in chromatography, helping to carry the sample through the stationary phase.
Now, let's match the items :
Item - I | Item - II | ||
---|---|---|---|
(A) | Benzaldehyde | (R) | Adsorbate |
(B) | Alumina | (Q) | Adsorbent |
(C) | Acetonitrile | (P) | Mobile phase |
Therefore, the correct match is :
(A) $$\to$$ (R); (B) $$\to$$ (Q); (C) $$\to$$ (P)
This corresponds to Option B.
