Match each statement with one of these terms.

Answer 1

Answer:

1 - e, 2 - k, 3 - a, 4 - i, 5 - b,

Explanation:

The ratio of the amount of analyte in the stationary phase to the amount in the mobile phase. --- Retention factor.

Time it takes after sample injection into the column for the analyte peak to appear as it exits the column. -- Retention time

The process of extracting a component that is adsorbed to a given material by use of an appropriate solvent system. -- Elution

Measure of chromatographic column efficiency. The greater its value, the more efficient the column. -- Theoretical plate number

Gas, liquid, or supercritical fluid used to transport the sample in chromatographic separations. -- Mobile phase

Immiscible and immobile, it is packed within a column or coated on a solid surface. -- Stationary phase
