Bob the chemist ran a TLC plate of his product, but the spot would not move off the baseline. The eluent he used consisted of a

Answer:

40 % polar / 60 % nonpolar system

Explanation:

According to the like-dissolves-like rule, remember that polar compounds dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar compounds dissolve in nonpolar solvents.

Notice that the eluent used is only slightly polar and mainly nonpolar. Since the product didn't move at all, this means it didn't interact with the major nonpolar solvent and is expected to be polar.

That said, a more polar system should be used in order to make the product move off the baseline, such as 40 % polar and 60 % nonpolar solvent system.

In case the product still doesn't move, polarity of the eluent should be increased further.

How do ethical guidelines make science safer ?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Well, for one thing, they ensure that a scientist can't claim a certain result, which might be biased and thus inaccurate, because he or she is being paid by, say, big business interests. For another, they ensure that medicines or treatments can't be made available to the public without thorough testing, replication, and peer review.
