Chapter 3.3, Problem 17E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Whether two compounds with same Rf and produce one spot are same or not should be determined.

Concept introduction:Retention factor or Rf refers to distance that is travelled by liquid to reach top of chromatographic plate. All compounds have particular value of Rf for specific solvent. This value is used for comparison of unknown samples with known compounds.

How can you interpret the Rf value to study any molecule?
What are the functional groups in this IR Spectra? Are there any that I am missing?
From your results, which component had the highest Rf value and which had the lowest? Based on your answer from the previous question, what could be the reason behind some components having an Rf value higher than the others? Compare the qualities of the two components that rendered the highest and lowest Rf After performing the simulation, what do you think are the possible practical applications of chromatographic techniques that are relevant to your program NURSING?
