Question 1

What does the partition constant (K) indicate?

  • The retention time of an analyte
  • The affinity of an analyte for the stationary phase
  • The flow rate of the mobile phase

💡 Hint: Think about the interactions of the analyte with both phases.

Question 2

True or False: Higher temperatures always improve separation quality in chromatography.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider the effects of temperature on interactions.
