Assignment 2

This document provides an assignment to estimate the concentration of compounds in an unknown sample (Sample X) by comparing it to chromatograms of standard mixtures of known concentrations. Students are asked to use the peak height and width data from Figure 1 and Table 1 to calculate the concentration of each compound in Sample X. The assignment is due on December 20th before noon and should follow the specified formatting guidelines. It is a group assignment with 3-4 students per group. Plagiarism will result in a zero mark.

ASSIGNMENT 2

(PO1, CO1, C6)

 Content
Figure 1 is overlaid chromatograms of GC analysis for three different standard mixtures (various
concentrations) consist of similar compounds as well as one unknown sample. Estimate the
concentration of each compound in Sample X.
(Note: Use “peak width on baseline, WB” value = 0.15 min for all peaks)
