Detection Methods
In order to have useful information, you need to be able to detect what comes out of the column. The analytes are ions that come out in separate sample bands, which means there is a small part of the solution coming out with a higher concentration of ions.
Based on your knowledge, how could you possibly detect ions or changes in ion concentrations coming off of the column?
