In a chromatogram, the pigment that moves the slowest is typically chlorophyll b. This is because it has a higher affinity for the stationary phase (usually the paper or the gel) compared to other pigments, leading to less distance traveled. Other pigments, such as carotenoids, generally move faster due to their lower affinity for the stationary phase.
The number of pigment bands seen in a chromatography experiment will depend on the number of different pigments present in the sample being analyzed. Each pigment will typically appear as a distinct band on the chromatogram.

If the chromatogram is left running for an extended period, the pigment spots may continue to separate as the solvent carries them further along the stationary phase. This could lead to increased resolution between the different pigments, but if left too long, the spots may become too diffuse and potentially merge into one another. Additionally, excessive time might cause the solvent front to reach the end of the chromatogram, resulting in a loss of resolution and clarity.
Amoebas move the slowest out of the three organisms (paramecium, amoeba, euglena). They use pseudopods to move and typically glide along surfaces at a slow pace.
No, the Rf values will not increase for each pigment with a longer chromatography run time. The Rf value is a constant characteristic of a compound in a particular solvent system and is not affected by the duration of the chromatography run.
The slowest speed an object can move is zero.

The cell is the slowest moving particle because of its weight and its size.
If the chromatogram is left running for an extended period, the pigment spots may continue to separate as the solvent carries them further along the stationary phase.

Additionally, excessive time might cause the solvent front to reach the end of the chromatogram, resulting in a loss of resolution and clarity.
Larger molecules will typically be located closer to the baseline of the chromatogram, as they move more slowly through the stationary phase on the filter paper and do not travel as far as smaller molecules during the chromatography process.
Pigments become separated during chromatography because each pigment travels at a different rate based on its unique chemical properties like size, solubility, and affinity for the stationary phase. As the solvent moves through the stationary phase, these differences cause the pigments to separate and form distinct bands or spots.
Clay courts are known to be the slowest tennis court.
In the solid state, molecules move the slowest. The particles are tightly packed together and have the least amount of energy to move around.
