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.
Rf is about .45
It will depend on the solvent system you are using.
The RF value for aspirin using TLC is around 0.45-0.50 depending on the solvent system used. Make sure you run your TLC plate properly and calculate that RF value like a boss. Just remember, TLC is like the fingerprinting of compounds - don't mess it up.
the mobility of any component in a particular solvent is referred to as its RF value. Mathematically, RF value = distance travelled by solute/ distance travelled by the solvent
The center of the band is used to calculate the Rf value for a cation because it provides a more accurate representation of the analyte's position during chromatography. The leading edge may be influenced by factors such as diffusion or overlapping with other components, leading to variability in measurement. By using the center, one minimizes these effects and achieves a more consistent and reliable Rf value that reflects the true migration of the cation in the solvent front.

The rf value is shorthand for the retention value of a substance. It is used in chromatography to determine the components of an unknown sample.
The maximum RF value that can be obtained is 1.0. This means that the substance travels the full distance of the chromatography medium being used. Any RF value greater than 1 is not physically possible.
In general, as saturation increases, the RF value decreases. This is because an increase in saturation tends to increase retention of the compound on the stationary phase, resulting in a lower RF value. Conversely, lower saturation levels may allow the compound to move more freely, leading to a higher RF value.

The RF value of benzoic acid in ethyl acetate is 0.68.
the Rf value value is 8.44 as the particles are lighter than 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.
