Q
Q: What is the principle behind electrophoresis in qualitative analysis?
Solution:
Electrophoresis separates charged particles based on their size and charge when an electric field is applied.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that electrophoresis is a method used to separate particles.
Step 2: Know that the particles being separated are usually charged, like proteins or DNA.
Step 3: Realize that an electric field is created, which causes the charged particles to move.
Step 4: Remember that the movement of particles depends on two things: their size and their charge.
Step 5: Smaller or more highly charged particles will move faster through the medium (like a gel).
Step 6: As the particles move, they separate from each other based on their size and charge.
