Question
1 what allows molecules be separated by column chromatography? check all that apply. check all that apply shape density size polarity
Column chromatography separates molecules based on their interaction with the stationary and mobile phases. Polarity affects how molecules interact with these phases. In size - exclusion chromatography (a type of column chromatography), size is a factor as smaller molecules can enter the pores of the stationary phase and take a longer path. Shape can also play a role in some types of chromatography as it can influence the flow through the column and interaction with the stationary phase. Density is not a characteristic that is typically used in column chromatography for separation.
