Where on the filter paper do you expect the larger molecules to be located in the final chromatogram?

Towards the centre of the chromatogram. The smaller molecules are more mobile and appear towards the outside of the chromatogram.


Since water is a much smaller molecule than octane C8H18 one would expect it to flow more quickly However studies show that water is almost four times as viscous as octane How can this be explain?

Octane molecules have almost no interaction with each other but water molecules link up together via a process called hydrogen bonding. This increases the viscosity, boiling and melting points for water.

Components of an itinerary?

Since an itinerary is a schedule of a trip, or voyage, it requires a list of things you are planning to do, and the time and date when you expect to do them, and also where you expect to do them. Since travel time is an important part of your schedule, scheduled departures and arrivals should be marked.
