#10 **Educational Content on Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC)**---**4. Effect of Eluent Polarity on Rf Values**- Did increasing the polarity of your eluent increase or decrease your Rf values?**5. Polarity and Rf Values**- Given that the solid surface is polar, explain why polar samples have lower Rf values than less polar ones.**6. Eluent Polarity and Rf Values**- Explain why increasing eluent polarity increases the Rf value for a given sample.**7. Spot Order for Specific Compounds**- In what order, from top to bottom, would you expect to see the spots for naphthalene (C₁₀H₈), butyric acid (CH₃CH₂CH₂CO₂H), and phenyl acetate (CH₃CO₂C₆H₅)? - **Order**: - Top - Middle - Bottom**8. Spot Order by Compound**- In what order, from top to bottom, would you expect to see the spots for the following? - Acetic acid = CH₃CO₂H - **Top** - Butanal = CH₃CH₂CH₂CHO - **2nd, 3rd, 4th** - 2-octanone = CH₃COCH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ - Decane = C₁₀H₂₂ - **Bottom** - 1-butanol = CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OH**9. Eluent of Low Polarity**- If an eluent of too low polarity is used for the development of a TLC plate, will the sample spots be somewhere in the middle, way at the bottom, or way at the top of the plate?**10. Eluent of High Polarity**- If an eluent of too high polarity is used for the development of a TLC plate, will the sample spots be somewhere in the middle, way at the bottom, or way at the top of the plate?---This content is designed to educate students about the fundamental concepts involved in thin-layer chromatography (TLC), focusing on the role of eluent polarity in determining Rf values and the separation of different compounds.

CONCLUSIONS: In general, the boiling points of compounds increase down a group in the periodic table. The melting points and boiling points for the hydrogen compounds of group 6A elements are in the table below. Melting Point (°C) Boiling Point (°C) H₂O 0.0 100.0 H₂S -82.0 -60.0 H₂Se -65.7 -41.2 H₂Te -49.0 -2.2 Use your understanding of chemistry to propose an explanation for the anomaly in the trend for the hydrogen compounds of group 6A elements shown in the table.
