Question

I would need help with these questions that I wasn't able to understand

QUESTION 1
If you are using polystyrene as the stationary phase, what would be the effect of switching from 90%:10% ethyl
acetate:hexane to 80%:20% ethyl acetate:hexane? (Dipole moment of hexane:0, dipole moment of ethyl
acetate: 1.78
the Rf would remain the same
the Rf would double
the Rf would decrease
the Rf would increase
QUESTION 2
What solvent property would alter Rf if two solvents have the same number of dipole of equal strength? (This
is for normal phase/silica/SiO2 stationary phase)
O hydrogen bond acceptors
hydrogen bond donors
O reactivity
polarizibility (large electron cloud)
QUESTION 3
What is Rf unable to measure in TLC?
how well two compounds separate by TLC
o how fast a solvent travels through the stationary phase
how strongly a compound adheres to the stationary phase
O how strongly a solvent binds to the stationary phase
