In gas chromatography, which effect results from increased column temperature?

A)Decreased analyte-stationary phase interaction
B)Increased partition coefficient selectivity
C)Enhanced hydrogen bonding in stationary phase
D)Stronger van der Waals molecular attraction

💡 Explanation

Raising the temperature increases the average kinetic energy of analyte molecules, therefore the decreased analyte-stationary phase interaction occurs because solutes spend less time interacting via *intermolecular forces*, rather than increased retention predicted by adsorption characteristics.
