Rf value is the ratio of the distance traveled by the solute to that of the solvent front on the paper used in chromatographic separation.
From the image it is clear the distance traveled by solvent front = 7.3 cm
Distance traveled by the component -1 of the mixture = 1.4 cm
Distance traveled by the component -2 of the mixture = 3.0 cm
Distance traveled by the component -3 of the mixture = 4.5 cm
Distance traveled by the component -4 of the mixture = 6.5 cm
Rf value of component-1 =
Rf value of component-2 =
Rf value of component-3 =
Rf value of component-4 =
b) Samples can be separated from a mixture using chromatography as the relative affinities for the compounds towards the paper (stationary phase) and the solvent(mobile phase) are different. Each component spends different amounts of time on the stationary phase depending on it chemical nature. So, the components in a mixture can be separated based on their polarities and relative degrees of adsorption on the stationary phase.
Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, P₄ will be the limiting reagent.
<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>In first place, the balanced reaction is:
8 P₄ + 3 S₈ → 8 P₄S₃
By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:
- P₄: 8 moles
- S₈: 3 moles
- P₄S₃: 8 moles
The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.
<h3>Limiting reagent in this case</h3>To determine the limiting reagent, it is possible to use a simple rule of three as follows: if by stoichiometry 3 moles of S₈ reacts with 8 moles of P₄, 4 moles of S₈ reacts with how many moles of P₄?
<u><em>moles of P₄= 10.667 moles</em></u>
But 10.667 moles of P₄ are not available, 4 moles are available. Since you have less amount of moles than you need to react with 4 moles of S₈, P₄ will be the limiting reagent.
