Kovat's retention indexKovat's retention index or simply Kovat's index is a method of quantifying the relative elution times of compounds in gas chromatography in such a way as to help positively identify the components of a mixture. The method takes advantage of the linear relationship between the values of log(tr') and the number of carbon atoms in a molecule. The value of Kovat's index is usually represented by I in mathematical expressions. It's applicability is restricted to organic compounds. The Kovat's index is given by the equation Additional recommended knowledge
