Qs4. This is a TLC analysis of 3 individual compounds. The plate was run in 20 % ethyl acetate, 80% hexane solvent mixture (eluent). Draw a schematic TLC plate for the same compounds, but when the eluent is 40% ethyl acetate, 60 % hexane. Indicate, what is the most polar and least polar compound (A, B, or C) -- A B C

In an experiment of Reverse Phase chromatography using C-18 stationary phase and a mixture of methanol/ethyl acetate/acetic acid, a researcher tried to separate the 3 compounds shown below. Which compound would have the lowest Rf and which the highest Rf in this experiment? Explain your answer and show any relevant structures.
1. Answer true or false for each statement: a) A TLC analysis is sufficient to characterize the purity of a compound. b) Carboxylic acids containing six or more carbon atoms per molecule are more soluble in2.5 M sodium hydroxide than in diethyl ether. c) Phenols containing six or more carbon atoms per molecule are more soluble in 2.5 M sodium hydroxidethan in diethyl ether. d) Benzoic acid and p-nitroaniline form water-soluble salts, whereas naphthalene does not. e) TLC analysis is the method of choice to determine the type of solid phase and eluent system that is required for a column chromatography separation. f) Mineral oil is an inappropriate heating fluid for determining the boiling points of samples that exceed 200°C (760 torr)? g) A heating bath containing mineral oil should not be used to determine the melting points of solids meltingabove 200 °C

Plant pigments in spinach were separated with TLC with cellulose as thestationary phase and 80/20 diethyl ether/acetone mixture as themobile phase. If needed, the solvent structures in the lab Appendix.1. Determine the Rf values of each plant component on this TLC plate.2. Arrange the plant components from most polar to most nonpolar. Please answer both 1 and 2 (picture below is the same question attached )
If you ran an unknown sample on a TLC using 3-Methyl-Pentane as eluent and observed only one spot with a Rf value -0.05, is it safe to assume that it is a pure compound? If not, how can you check it out using TLC?
5. Properties and IMF: Chlorophyll a and Chlorophyll b are almost identical in structure, but they separated during TLC. Report the RFs you recorded for both molecules. What functional group(s) are different between them? Then explain these RF values by comparing the IMF present in each molecule to those present in the mobile or stationary phase and how this shaped their affinities for each phase. Use the terms RF, IMF, polar, nonpolar, affinity, mobile phase and stationary phase.
True or False: Rf values can be used to identify pure compounds, provided that the analysis of the unknown is run simultaneously with the known compound in the same TLC plate.
The TLC plate shown was run in 80:20 Petroleum Ether - Ethyl acetate. If the eluent is changed to 95:5 Petroleum Ether - Ethyl Acetate, what will happen to the R-values? All Rf values will decrease All Rf values will increase Some Rf values will increase Some Rf values will decrease
