The correct statement among the following, for a "chromatography" purification method is :
Options
- AOrganic compounds run faster than solvent in the thin layer chromatographic plate.
- B( R _f ) is an integral value.
- C( R _f ) of a polar compound is smaller than that of a non-polar compound.
- DNon-polar compounds are retained at top and polar compounds come down in column chromatography.
Correct answer
C. ( R _f ) of a polar compound is smaller than that of a non-polar compound.
Step-by-step solution
Non polar compounds are having higher value of R _ f than polar compound.
