An R F value will always be in the range 0 to 1; if the substance moves, it can only move in the direction of the solvent flow, and cannot move faster than the solvent. For example, if particular substance in an unknown mixture travels 2.5 cm and the solvent front travels 5.0 cm, the retardation factor would be 0.50.
The response factor can be expressed on a molar, volume or mass [1] basis. Where the true amount of sample and standard are equal: = where A is the signal (e.g. peak area) and the subscript i indicates the sample and the subscript st indicates the standard. [2]
In crystallography, the R-factor (sometimes called residual factor or reliability factor or the R-value or R Work) is a measure of the disagreement between the crystallographic model and the experimental X-ray diffraction data - lower the R value lower is the disagreement or
Another function is the multispot response function (MRF) as developed by De Spiegeleer et al.{Analytical Chemistry (1987):59(1),62-64} It is based also of differences product. This function always lies between 0 and 1. When two RF values are equal, it is equal to 0, when all RF values are equal-spread, it is equal to 1.
In contrast to the similar concept called Retention uniformity, R d is sensitive to R f values close to 0 or 1, or close to themselves. If two values are not separated, it is equal to 0. For example, the R f values (0,0.2,0.2,0.3) (two compounds not separated at 0.2 and one at the start ) result in R D equal to 0, but R U equal to 0.3609.
The relative static permittivity of a solvent is a relative measure of its chemical polarity. For example, water is very polar, and has a relative static permittivity of 80.10 at 20 °C while n-hexane is non-polar, and has a relative static permittivity of 1.89 at 20 °C. [26]
Molar refractivity, [1] [2], is a measure of the total polarizability of a mole of a substance.. For a perfect dielectric which is made of one type of molecule, the molar refractivity is proportional to the polarizability of a single molecule of the substance.
It means that to increase resolution of two peaks on a chromatogram, one of the three terms of the equation need to be modified. 1) N can be increased by lengthening the column (least effective, as doubling the column will get a 2 1/2 or 1.44x increase in resolution).
