Match the chromatography term with its definition. the volume of solvent traveling through the column per unit time. the elapsed time between sample injection and detection. the time required by a retained solute to travel through the column beyond the time required by the unretained solvent. the distance traveled by the solvent per unit time. describes the amount of time that a sample spends in the stationary phase relative to the mobile phase. it is sometimes also called the capacity factor or capacity ratio. volume of the mobile phase required to elute a solute from the column. ratio of the adjusted retention times or retention factors of two solutes. it is sometimes also called the separation factor. the ratio of the solute concentrations in the mobile and stationary phases.

The statements are definitions to chromatography terms which have been highlighted below.

Explanation:

Match the chromatography term with its definition.

Volumetric Flow Rate = The volume of solvent traveling through the column per unit time.

Retention time = The elapsed time between sample injection and detection.

Adjusted Retention Time = The time required by a retained solute to travel through the column beyond the time required by the un -retained solvent.

Linear Flow Rate = The distance traveled by the solvent per unit time.

Retention factor = Describes the amount of time that a sample spends in the stationary phase relative to the mobile phase. It is sometimes also called the capacity factor or capacity ratio.

Relative Volume = Volume of the mobile phase required to elute a solute from the column.

Relative Retention = Ratio of the adjusted retention times or retention factors of two solutes. It is sometimes also called the separation factor.

Partition coefficient = The ratio of the solute concentrations in the mobile and stationary phases.

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
