"Liquid chromatography" refers to a technique used to separate and analyze different components of a liquid mixture. It involves passing the mixture through a special material called a "column" that separates each component based on their properties. This method helps scientists identify and quantify substances present in the liquid, which can be useful in various fields like medicine, chemistry, and environmental sciences.
