Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Different values of Rf for same compounds with same solvents should be explained.

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.

Which parameter between "solvent polarity function" and dielectric constant show better correlation with the peak positions? (cyclohexane, dioxane, acetonitrile, ethanol, ethylene glycol)
1- While cleaning out a laboratory shelf, you have made a mistake in labeling two bottles of ethanol and acetic acid. To identify the molecular structure of the contents of the bottle, samples were submitted for analysis using infrared spectroscopy, based on the IR results, draw the molecular structure of the molecule that would correspond to the spectrum for that compound.
