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.

Will acetaminophen or ibuprofen have a higher Rf if you carry out a TLC separation of on a silica gel using a non-polar developing solvent?

Acetaminophen will have Rf value of about 0.4 and ibuprofen will have Rf value of about 0.6 if the non polar solvent used is ethanol.


What are the Rf values for pure aspirin and salicylic acid With workings shown so i can understand thank you?

The Retardation Factor (RF) value of aspirin is 0.56. The RF value of salicyclic acid is 0.654. Although workings cannot be shown here, a more detailed explanation can be found on the RSC website.


What is the RF value for paracetamol?

That depends on many factors including the elution solvent used, the type of TLC plate used, etc.. When using .5% of acetic acid in ethyl acetate as your elution solvent and on a plastic backed plate, the Rf-value should be around 79.82%


What pigment has Rf value 0.66?

my preliminary aspirin synthesis result, although it is impure. however this is common. but no idea what is actually is!


What is the Rf value of salicylamide?

It will depend on the solvent system you are using.


Will acetaminophen or phenacetin have a higher Rf if you carry out a TLC separation of on a silica gel using a non-polar developing solvent?

Phenacetin will have a higher Rf value than acetaminophen in a TLC separation on silica gel using a non-polar developing solvent. This is because phenacetin is more non-polar than acetaminophen, causing it to move further up the TLC plate and have a higher Rf value.


Arrange the following compounds in order of increasing Rf values in TLC Anthracene benzil tryphenylmethanol?

The order of increasing RF values in TLC is Benzil, methanol anthracene and tryphenyl.


What are the TLC Rf values influencing factors?

Response Details:1) factor that affects the Rf value of TLC is the polarity of the solvent. If the solvent is too polar all of the compounds can run right up the plate resulting in poor separation.2) The RF value is used to established the identity of the spots of TLC plate.3) The RF value is ratio of the distance the solvent travels to the distance compound travels.4) The factors can affect RF values. The absorbent uniformity on the thin layer plate, same concentration(spotting is too weak or strong), room temperature during the mobile phase and development distance of the solvent during the mobile phase can all affect the results.5) Multiple solvent system are necessory when utilizing TLC for identification purposes.Response Details:1) factor that affects the Rf value of TLC is the polarity of the solvent.

What is solvent for benzil to develop TLC and Rf?

A common solvent mixture for developing TLC plates with benzil as the compound is a mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane in a 1:1 ratio. This solvent system can help achieve good separation and clear Rf values for benzil on the TLC plate.


Why is that the centre of the spot is considered when calculating Rf values for TLC?

The center of the spot is considered when calculating Rf values in thin layer chromatography (TLC) because it provides a more consistent and accurate measurement point for comparing the distance traveled by the compound being analyzed to the distance traveled by the solvent front. This helps to standardize the Rf value calculation and allows for better reproducibility of results.
