Which of the following does not improve resolution?

Increasing the injection volume

Using a smaller particle size

Changing the organic modifier

Lengthening the column

  • A.Using a smaller particle size
  • B.Changing the organic modifier
  • C.Lengthening the column
  • D.Increasing the injection volume

Answer: D

A larger injection overloads the column and broadens or distorts the peaks, reducing resolution rather than improving it. The other three act on efficiency or selectivity. Because the resolution equation contains no term for sample amount, any change to it can only hurt - which is why injection volume is minimised subject to detecting the analyte.
