Question:
Using the provided information in the following paper chromatogram :
the calculate $R_{f}$ value of $A$_________ $\times 10^{-1}$
Solution:
$\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{f}}=\frac{\text { Distance travelled by compound }}{\text { Distance travelled by solvent }}$
on chromatogram distance travelled by cmopound is $\rightarrow 2 \mathrm{~cm}$
Distance travelled by solvent $=5 \mathrm{~cm}$
So $\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{f}}=\frac{2}{5}=4 \times 10^{-1}=0.4$
