In normal phase TLC, will benzoic acid or acetophenone have a higher Rf value? Please explain why your chosen compound has the highest Rf.
Acetophenone has Highest Rf value , because it is less polar compound, while benzoicacid is most polar compound.
For polar compounds has lower Rf values, for non polar compounds has Highest Rf values.
Rf = distance traveled by compound/ distance traveled by solvent
For polar compound travel very slowly, for non polar compounds move very fastly in TLC plate.
In normal phase TLC, will benzoic acid or acetophenone have a higher Rf value? Please explain...
When using normal phase TLC for the separation of benzoic acid and salicylic acid, which compound would produce a larger Rf value and why? What would happen to the Rf values if the solvent polarity were increased?
Which compound is likely to have the highest Rf value on silica gel TLC? Group of answer choices A) Benzoic Acid B) Dimethylaniline C) Benzophenone D) They will all have the same Rf value.
Which compound would have the higher Rf value- Cholesterol or Cholesterol Stearate? Explain why (TLC analysis, Polarity, etc).
1. a) Why does biphenyl have a higher Rf value than either benzophenone or triphenylmethanol? Explain based on the structures and their effect on mobility in the TLC process. b) Which compound, benzophenone or triphenylmethanol has a higher Rf value? Explain, based on their structures, how you can predict this. c) You developed your TLC using a 10% mixture of diethyl ether in petroleum ether. Petroleum ether is a mixture of non-polar alkanes, so this TLC solvent is composed of...
Which compound should have the highest Rf value on a TLC plate? A acetanilide B nitroacetanilide C dinitroacetanilide
Determine the Rf value of the substances A, B, and C on the TLC shown. Show your calculation! What will happen if the applied spot is lower than the level of the developing liquid? What will be the result of applying too much compound on a TLC plate? What is the reason that the mobile phase travels up the silica gel plate (TLC plate)? 4. Determine the Rf value of the substances A, B, and Con the TLC shown. Show...
Which compound should have the highest Rf value on a TLC plate? (for Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution: Preparation of p-Nitroacetanilide experiment) A acetanilide B nitroacetanilide C dinitroacetanilide
predict witch will have the highest rf value and witch will have the lowest out of naphthalene nonpolar butyric acid polar and phenyl acetate slightly polor when developed on a silica gel TLC plate using toluene as the mobile phase
Ok, so what would happen if you are working with TLC and have a polar stationary phase (silica) and a mobile phase ( polar eluting solution) and you spot a nonpolar compound? Would the Rf values be greater than in a nonpolar mobile phase? I know in general if you are using TLC with polar silica and spot a nonpolar compound the nonpolar compound travels further (higher Rf values) because its chemical structure is different than the stationary phase compared...
2. A solution containing a mixture of naphthalene, benzoic acid, and benzaldehyde is analyzed via TLC and GC. Use the structures and properties of the compounds to aid in answering the following questions. A. In the TLC experiment, the mixture is spotted on a silica TLC plate and eluted with a 1:1 mixture of hexanes and ethyl acetate. Three spots are observed on the plate, with Re values of 0.25, 0.58, and 0.74. Indicate which spot corresponds to which compound....
