Which of the following statement is correct for paper chromatography ?
- A Water present in the mobile phase gets absorbed by the paper which then forms the stationary phase.
- B Water present in the pores of the paper forms the stationary phase.
- C Paper sheet forms the stationary phase.
- D Paper and water present in its pores together form the stationary phase.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Water present in the pores of the paper forms the stationary phase.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In paper chromatography, a special quality paper known as chromatography paper is used. Paper contains water trapped in it, which acts as the stationary phase.
