What is the main purpose of liquid-liquid extraction?
Think about the function solvents serve in sample analysis.
Name one advantage of solid-phase extraction over liquid-liquid extraction.
Consider how the extraction process changes.
What is the technique called that uses a solvent to remove organic compounds from water?
Remember how we discussed solvent functions.
True or False: Solid-phase extraction uses a liquid phase to capture analytes.
Think about what the extraction method entails.
Consider a case where a solvent is too volatile during extraction and causes significant co-evaporation. Suggest how to modify the method to minimize analyte losses.
Think about how solvent properties affect its behavior during heating.
After applying solid-phase extraction, you find that some unwanted impurities remain in the extract. What could be a potential cleanup step you could perform?
