Rf Value:
|
Describes how a substance elutes. Elusion is a Physical property of a substance. Will always be less than one with no unit!
|
Chromatography
|
A method of seperating a mixture into single components to identify a compound or a mixture.
Based on the components soluability.(physical property) |
Stationary phase
|
Solid and porous. paper
|
Mobile Phase
|
Liquid or gas that travels the stationary phase by capillary action. Solvant.
|
Elusion
|
The process that the mobil phase travels along the stationary phase
|
Rf value equation
|
Spot distance/solvant distance= <1, no unit
|
Detection Method
|
Used in conjunction with chromatogrophy to help identify the individual components after they are seperated
