Which is NOT true for solute retention? Adjusted retention time is t;' = t - tm, where t, is the retention time and tm is the time for mobile phase or unretained solutes to pass through the column. The retention factor, k t.tm , is the time, tr, required to elute a component tom minus the time, tm, for mobile phase to pass through the column divided by tm. Retention time, t,, is the elapsed time between injecting the sample to the arrival of a sample component at the detector minus the dwell time between the end of the column and the detector. The relative retention, a = 은 is the ratio for the adjusted retention time for two components of the sample, where trz'> tri so that a > 1. where K2 and Ky are the partition K The relative retention, a, also equals K coefficients for components 2 and 1.
