What would happen to the Rf value if a chromatography strip was twice as long and half as long?
No, because the distance a compound moved in relation to the solvent front is relative. The higher up the solvent front the greater the distance travelled by the compound. Remembering that Rf is always <1.
What does Rf Values in chromatography represent?
It is the rate of flow for each color. It is calculated by taking the value for the measured from the initial color mark to the solvent front (value A) and then the distance from the initial spot to each of the centers of the color marks separated (value B). You then divide B by A. For example, solvent front for black felt tip pen is 5.4cm and the distance for value B is .9 cm. The rf for this problem is .9cm/5.4 cm = .17 (Rf factor is a unitless number)
How do you solve the Rf value in Column Chromatography?
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.
How do you calculate RF Value?
The Rf value is the "ratio to the front." Hence the R and the f. It is defined as the ration of the distance traveled by a spot (measured from the center) to the distance traveled by the solvent.
What is Rf value?
It is the distance travelled by the sample or analyte divided by distance travelled by the solvent front in chromatography.
What would happen to the Rf value if a chromatography strip was twice as long and half as long?
No, because the distance a compound moved in relation to the solvent front is relative. The higher up the solvent front the greater the distance travelled by the compound. Remembering that Rf is always <1.
How do you define the retention value of a chemical species?
The Retention Value(Rf) of a chemical species is the relative distance a particular component moves in relation to the distance the solvent front moves.
What do you mean rf cable?
RF = Radio Frequency
What is Rf in chemistry?
Rf=Distance travelled by pigment/ Distance travelled by the solvent.Rf is the distance travelled by a sample or analyte divided by distance travelled by the solvent front in chromatography
What do the Rf values indicate about the relative solubility of the pigment in the the solvent?
The Rf values do not indicate the solubility of a substance. The Rf value or retardation factor is the ratio of the distance traveled by the center of a pot to the distance traveled by the solvent front in chromatography.
What is the maximum and RF value can be?
1, if it completely solube in the solvent, it will travel with it, right to the solvent front.
What does the medical abbreviation RF mean?
RF means retroflexed or radiofrequency, depending on context.
What dose RF mean?
It depends on the context. In electronics, RF stands for Radio Frequency.
How do you work out RF value?
Rf = distance to color/distance to front line

What does rf mean in the periodic table?
Rutherfordium
Where is the battery access panel in a 2001 Dodge Intrepid?
