1. Define retention factor. Explain why it is or isn't an intrinsic property of a substance. 2. A scientist was separating inks using a mixture of acetone and water as the mobile phase. Her assistant forgot to take out the paper and the solvent went past the top of the stationary phase. How will this affect the retention factors of the ink components? Will they be underestimated or overestimated? Explain.
The figure below shows a typical separation of several fat-soluble vitamins by HPLC. The x-axis is retention time in minutes.  From the graph try to estimate retention times for peaks 2 and 3. Retention time peak 2 = Retention time peak 3 = Assume that w1/2 is 0.15 minutes for peak 2 and 0.16 minutes for peak 3. Assume that tm is 2.00 minutes. How much time does gamma-tocopherol spend in the stationary phase? From tr and w1/2 find N for the peak that elutes first.  From tr and w1/2 find the resolution of peaks 2 and 3 Calculate α for these peaks. If the flow rate for the column is 1.2 mL/minute what is the retention volume for peak 4?
2-pentanone has a retention index of 987 on a poly(ethylene glycol) column (also called Carbowax). (a) Between which two straight-chain hydrocarbons is 2-pentanone eluted? (b) An unretained solute is eluted from a certain column in 1.80 min. Decane (C10H22) is eluted in 15.63 min and undecane (C11H24) is eluted in 17.22 min. What is the retention time of a compound whose retention index is 1 050?
