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.
Hello!
Similarities:
-They can conduct electric current because they both are ionic substances.-
-They both form Water and Salt when neutralized.
Differences:
-Acids release Hydronium ions (H₃O⁺) when hydrolyzed while Bases release Hydroxyl ions (OH⁻) when hydrolyzed.
-Acids are commonly formed with non-metals (such as Chlorine, Sulfur, Oxygen, and Nitrogen) while Bases are commonly formed with metals (such as Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, and Copper).
Have a nice day!
Answer:
Carbon and phosphorus
Explanation:
The atoms of carbon and phosphorus are most likely to gain electrons from the given choices .
The reason for this is because, both carbon and phosphorus are non-metals. Most non-metals usually accept electrons.
Metals are usually electron donors .
- Metals are known for their electropositivity which is their ability to lose electrons.
- Non-metals are electronegative and will tend to have a strong affinity for electrons.
