 Consider the following experimental data collected for separations on three columns

Consider the following experimental data collected for separations on three columns identical in all ways except for the size of the stationary phase particles (3,5 or 10m). Which column would show the best resolution for two similar solutes? What aspect(s) of the graph above allowed you to make this decision? (1 mark) Use the van Deemter equation to explain the differences in these three plots. (3 marks) What disadvantage in a chromatographic separation can result from a decrease in particle size? ( 1 mark)
