Questions and Answers

The image (above) is a depiction of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. The labels I, III and VI are (in that order):

A I (Decreasing energy), IV (X-rays) and VI (Infrared) B I (Increasing wavefunction), IV (Gamma rays) and VI (Ultraviolet light) C I (Increasing energy), III (Gamma rays) and VI (Infrared) D I (Decreasing energy), III (Radio waves) and VI (Ultraviolet light) E I (Increasing energy), III (X-rays) and VI (Radio waves)

  • I (Increasing energy), III (Gamma rays) and VI (Infrared) (correct)

    • High Performance/Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) can be used either in normal phase or reverse phase. Which one of the statements below is incorrect?

  • Reverse phase HPLC mobile phase is usually a mixture of water and organic solvents
  • In reverse phase HPLC, the bond strength between analyte and stationary phase is inversely proportional to the analyte hydrophobicity (correct)
  • In reverse phase HPLC, adjusting the pH of the mobile phase will change the hydrophobicity of the analytes
  • In normal phase HPLC, the analyte separation is based on the degree of polar-polar interactions between analyte and stationary phase

    • Which one of the statements (below) regarding discontinuous gel electrophoresis of proteins is incorrect?

  • The proteins are separated on the basis of size
  • The electrical current is applied in cycles of (x) minutes on, (x) minutes off (repeat) – the value of x depends on the molecular weight of the largest protein (correct)
  • The samples are loaded into stacking gel wells
  • The proteins concentrate at the stacking gel/running gel boundary when the electrical current is applied
