Paper chromatography operates based on which of the following principles?
1. Adsorption
2. Partition
3. Solubility
4. Volatility
Match the type of mixture of compounds in Column-I with the technique of separation/purification given in Column-II.
Column-I | Column-II | ||
A. | Two solids which have different solubilities in a solvent and which do not undergo a reaction when dissolved in it | 1. | Steam distillation |
B. | Liquid that decomposes at its boiling point | 2. | Fractional distillation |
C. | Steam volatile liquid | 3. | Crystallisation |
D. | Two liquids that have boiling points close to each other | 4. | Distillation under reduced pressure |
Codes:
A | B | C | D | |
1. | 3 | 4 | 1 | 2 |
2. | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
3. | 1 | 4 | 3 | 2 |
4. | 4 | 1 | 3 | 2 |
Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): | Components of a mixture of red and blue inks can be separated by distributing the components between stationary and mobile phases in paper chromatography. |
Reason (R): | The colored components of inks migrate at different rates because paper selectively retains different components according to the difference in their partition between the two phases. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
