MCQ
Three organic compounds $A , B$ and $C$ were allowed to run in thin layer chromatography using hexane and gave the following result (see figure). The $R_f$ value of the most polar compound is $............\,\times 10^{-2}$
  • A
    $24$
  • $25$
  • C
    $23$
  • D
    $22$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$25$
b
More $R _{ f }$, less its polarity

$R _{ f }=\frac{\text { Distance travelled by compound ' } X \text { ' }}{\text { Distance travelled by solvent ' } Y '}$

$=\frac{2}{8}=0.25=25 \times 10^{-2}$
