Chemistry

Lead refers to a chemical element with atomic number 82. It is a heavy metal, which is denser in comparison to the majority of the common substances. It is malleable and soft and also exhibits a comparatively low melting point. On the other hand, a plastic foam refers to a lightweight cellular form, used mainly as packing material or for insulation.  

Lead is more resistant and heavier, while plastic foam is light and can easily be shattered. They both are completely distinct components with each possessing specific characteristics, and they both exhibit distinct textures. The main reason for their distinct characteristics is the difference in the atoms taking part in their compositions.

Which is the basis of thin-layer chromatography?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

B.) The drug gets carried through a stationary phase by a mobile phase and the retention time identifies the drug.

Explanation:

Chromatography is used in purifying complex mixtures of organic compounds. It uses the adsorption tendencies of compounds to seperate and identify them.

Chromatography is made up of two phases in contact, the stationary phase or non-mobile phase and the mobile phase. The movement of the mobile phase over the stationary phase causes the separation of a mixture into its constituents.

The stationary phase is made up of silica-gel or alumina in a solvent (an adsorbent) and the mobile phase or carrier is the organic solvent which is the drug.

MAVERICK [17]
An isotope is one of two or more forms of the same chemical element. Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, giving them the same atomic number, but a different number of neutrons giving each elemental isotope a different atomic weight.
