rf
RF- Radio Frequency, which is in the measure of kilo & mega Hz range
There are no units because it is simply a ratio
To calculate the Rf (retention factor) values of dyes in chromatography, you first need to measure the distance traveled by the dye from the baseline to the center of the dye spot. Next, measure the distance traveled by the solvent front from the baseline to the solvent's leading edge. The Rf value is then calculated using the formula: Rf = (distance traveled by the dye) / (distance traveled by the solvent). This value typically ranges from 0 to 1 and is specific to the conditions of the experiment.
The full name of Rf value is the Retention Factor value. It is a measure used in chromatography to quantify the movement of a particular component relative to the solvent front.
The RF value, or retention factor, is a measure used in chromatography to indicate the relative distance traveled by a compound compared to the solvent front. By definition, RF values range from 0 to 1, where 0 indicates that a compound did not move from the origin and 1 indicates that it moved with the solvent front. Therefore, RF values cannot be negative.
Of course. For a long time, that was the only way to measure an RF voltage. You just have to be careful how you set up your instrument ... grounding & bypassing etc. ... so that you and your meter don't just become an antenna, and so that you don't detune the RF source when you couple your meter to it.
The Rf value of a substance is a measure of its migration distance during chromatography. A substance with an Rf value of 0.803 would mean that it traveled 80.3% of the total distance from the origin to the solvent front during the chromatography process. The specific identity of the substance would depend on the experimental conditions and the properties of the compound.
Measure the distance from your marked pencil line to the solvent front. Also measure the distance fomr the marked pencil line to the middle of the spot, and divide this by the first distance. This value will be between 0 and 1.
