are more effective in the

83
Q

mixtures of volatile liquids, and solid material.

A

Gas Chromatography

84
Q

the ratio of distance traveled by the analyte to that
of the solvent front on a chromatogram.

A

Retardation or retention factor value

85
Q

the characteristic identification
value for analytes at given temperatures.It
means that compounds can be analyzed and
identified based on their Rf values

A

Rf value

86
Q

suitable solvent (mobile phase), depending
upon the nature of analytes, and the stationary
phases

A

Chromatogram

87
Q

of solvent and also the solubilities of analytes
in the solvent.

A

Temperature

88
Q

Why do we need Rf Values?

A

Rf values in chromatography are the basic requirement of the whole experiment.  These values tell us whether the analyte(solute)is more affinitive with stationary or the mobile phase.  Rf values evaluate the polarity, relative masses, and relative solubilities with stationary and mobile phases, etc.

89
Q

Is Chromatography paper Polar?

A

The compound acting as the stationary phase is the adsorbed water on cellulose fibers which is
a polar compound. So, the chromatographic paper in column chromatography is polar. This is also the reason why it is called liquid-liquid chromatography.
