This of the following statements about paper and gas chromatography is correct(a) The Rf and Rt values of a substance are determined solely by the interaction of the substance with the stationary phase. (b) A substance with a long retention time in gas chromatography is likely to have a high Rf value in paper chromatography.

(d) A long retention time in gas chromatography is indicative of a substance with a strong adsorption on to the stationary phase. Q. Acetone is an organic molecule with a semi-structural formula of CH3COCH3. A student runs a sample of acetone through a gas chromatogram at 50C. The acetone produces a peak after 4.2 minutes.

(c)The mixture has at least three components, one of which must be acetone. (d)The mixture has three components, but acetone is not one of them. Q.
