Study Notes

What is the distribution constant (K) in chromatography? What does linear chromatography refer to? What does tR' represent in chromatography? How is the average linear velocity of solute (V') calculated? What does U represent in terms of linear velocity in chromatography?

Learn about the distribution constant K in chromatography, which represents the interaction of solutes with stationary and mobile phases. Understand how the concentrations of solute in both phases affect the separation process.
