    Rf Value in Chromatography

    • Rf value quantifies the distance traveled by a substance in a chromatogram relative to the distance traveled by the solvent front.
    • Rf value equals the ratio of the distance traveled by the substance to the distance traveled by the solvent front.
    • The range of Rf value is 0 to 1, where 0 indicates the substance did not move from the origin and 1 indicates the substance moved with the solvent front.
