NEETChemistryGeneral Organic Chemistry
Given below are two statements: Statement-I: Retardation factor R f can be measured in meter/centimetre. Statement-II: R f value of a compound remains constant in all solvents. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Options
- AStatement-I is true but statement-II is false
- BBoth statement-I and statement-II are true
- CBoth statement-I and statement-II are false
- DStatement-I is false but statement-II is true
Correct answer
C. Both statement-I and statement-II are false
Step-by-step solution
R f = retardation factor R f = Distance travelled by the substance from reference line cm Distance travelled by the solvent from reference line cm Note: R f value of different compounds are different.
