Question

Transcribed Image Text:d. In Figure 4, each stationary phase shows some negative correlation between plate count
and retention factor. In other words, as k' increases, N decreases. Explain this relationship
between k' and N.

Figure 4. Column efficiency (N) vs retention factor (k') for 22
nonionizable solutes on FMS (red), PGC (black), and COZ (green). 3000
Eluent compositions (acetonitrile/water, A/W) were adjusted to obtain
k' less than 15, which was achieved for most solutes as follows: FMS
(30/70 A/W), PGC (60/40), COZ (80/20). Slightly different
compositions were used for the most highly retained solutes. All
columns were 50 mm × 4.6 mm id and packed with 5 um particles,
except for COZ, which was packed with 3 um particles. All other
chromatographic conditions were constant: column length 5 cm,
column j.§. 4.6 mm, flow rate 2 mL/min, column temperature 40 °C,
and injection volume 0.5 μL

Retention Factor (k')

e. Figure 5 shows retention factor data for 16 solutes used in the hydrophobic subtraction
model (HSM), which is used to characterize how ionizable solutes will behave on a new
stationary phase. (You will notice that many of the HSM solutes are weak acids and/or
weak bases.) Which stationary phase (FMS or C18) is better at retaining the HSM solutes?
Why is this the case?
