Use Figure 25-33 for the following questions:
a. What pHpH would be best for the separation of benzoic acid, 4-4-nitrophenol, and 3-3-methylbenzoic acid?
b. What pHpH would be best for the separation of benzoic acid, 3-3-methylbenzoic acid, and 4-4-methylaniline?
c. What pHpH would be best for separation of 4-4-nitrophenol, 4-4-methylaniline, and codeine on a typical C18-silica  C₁₈-silica column?

Freeman and Company FIGURE 25-33 Effect of plPH on reversed-phase retention of (a) weak acids and (b) weak bases. Different à pH 2.48 buffers are used to cover the pH range: o pH 2.48 phosphate; +5.01+5.01 acetate; n 5.01 5.01 piperazine; 7.900 7.90 phosphate; A 7.91A 7.91 tris; 10.76×10.76 aminobutane. The effect of pH is much greater than the effect of buffer type. Separations were performed on a 15x0.46 cm 15 x 0.46 cm pH-stable X-Terra MS-C1818 column at 25°C 25 °C. Typical silica phases are limited to the pH range 2-8.2-8.
