Q

How can chromatography show the composition of a mixture

A

Different colours will separate

17
Q

Why should pencil be used to draw the Line on the paper

A

Because pen will leak in the water too and effect the experiment

18
Q

What is an Rf value

A

The ratio between the distance traveled by the solute and the distance travelled by the solvent

19
Q
