You used a mobile phase of 90% ethyl acetate (CH3CH2COOCH3)/5% acetic acid (CH3CO2H) as the mobile phase to develop the TLC plate that was spotted with analgesic compounds. What would have been the appearance of the developed plate if a mixture of 80% ethyl acetate and 20% acetic acid were used as the mobile phase? O The order of elution of the compounds would be reversed. O All the compounds would not have traveled as far up the plate. O All the compounds would have traveled farther up the plate. O Some of the compouunds would have migrated farther and some would not have migrated as far.
