Corrected peak area. A micellar electrokinetic chromatography method for phthalazine and its metabolite 1-1- phthalazinone yielded the following repeatability for six replicate injections of a 50 μM 50 μM phthalazinone standard.

Injection number 11 22 33 44 55 Migration time (min) 3.9463.046 3.9213.921

a. What is the difference between repeatability and reproducibility?
b. Determine the relative standard deviation for migration time and for peak area.
c. Calculate the corrected peak area, which is peak area divided by migration time, for each injection. What is the relative standard deviation of the corrected peak area? Why is it different than the peak area value determined in (b)?
