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
