Question

Given below are two statements :

Statement-I : Retardation factor (R_f) can be measured in meter/centimeter.

Statement-II : R_f value of a compound remains constant in all solvents.

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

(1) Statement-I is true but statement-II is false

(2) Both statement-I and statement-II are true

(3) Both statement-I and statement-II are false

(4) Statement-I is false but statement-II is true

Answer 1

(3) Both statement-I and statement-II are false

R_f = retardation factor
