The most appropriate method for separating a large quantity of a mixture of nonvolatile, nonpolar organic compounds would be__________?

A. Distillation
B. Extraction
C. Gas chromatography
D. Column chromatography

¨       The most appropriate method for separating a large quantity of a mixture of nonvolatile, nonpolar organic compounds would be D) Column chromatography. This method allows for the separation of different components of a mixture based on their different affinities for a stationary phase and a mobile phase. The stationary phase is typically a solid material, while the mobile phase is a liquid or gas that flows through the stationary phase. The nonpolar compounds in the mixture would have a higher affinity for the stationary phase, allowing them to be separated from the other compounds in the mixture.
