The separation of two coloured substances was done by paper chromatography. The distances travelled by solvent front, substance \mathrm{A} and substance \mathrm{ \mathrm{B}} from the base line are \mathrm{ 3.25 \mathrm{~cm}, 2.08 \mathrm{~cm}} and \mathrm{ 1.05 \mathrm{~cm},} respectively. The ratio of \mathrm{ R_{f}} values of \mathrm{ A } to \mathrm{ B } is _________.

We know,

\mathrm{R_f=\frac{\text { Distance moved by the substance from base line }}{\text { Distance moved by the solvent from base line }}}

So,

\mathrm{R_f_A=\frac{2.08}{3.25} \text { and } R_{f_B}=\frac{1.05}{3.25}}

Then ratio of \mathrm{R_{f}} values of A to B is

\mathrm{\frac{R_f_A}{R_{f_B}}=\frac{2.08 / 3.25}{1.05 / 3.25}=2}

Answer = 2
