In chromatography, which of the following statements is INCORRECT for
Rf ?

In chromatography, which of the following statements is INCORRECT for
Rf ?

A The value of Rf cannot be more than one.

B Higher Rf value means higher adsorption.

C Rf value is dependent on the mobile phase.

D Rf value depends on the type of chromatography.


Solution:

The Rf value is a measure of how far a compound travels in the


chromatography medium relative to the solvent front. A higher Rf
value actually indicates lower adsorption to the stationary phase,
allowing the compound to travel further with the mobile phase.

Given below are two statements :
Statement I : Retardation factor (Rf ) can be measured in
meter/centimeter.
Statement II : Rf value of a compound remains constant in all
solvents.
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given
below :

A Both statement I and statement II are false

B Both statement I and statement II are true

C Statement I is true but statement II is false

D Statement I is false but statement II is true


Solution:

Retardation factor (Rf ) is the ratio of distance moved by the


substance from the base line to the distance moved by the solvent
from the baseline. So, it is dimensionless.
The distance moved by the substance is due to adsorption of the
substance on the stationary phase. It does not depend on the
nature of solvent. But the distance moved by the solvent will
change with the nature of solvent.
Therefore, Rf will vary with the change in solvent.
So, both the statements are false.

Glycerol boils at 290o C with slight decomposition, impure glycerine can
be purified by:

A Steam distillation

B Simple distillation
