Preparing a Sample Space
Cut a sheet of paper so it may hang free within the intended container
Mark a sample line ½ inch to an inch from the bottom

Starting the Sample Place the sheet in a container with a solvent
The bottom of the paper should be submerged into the solvent, but not above the samples

Calculating Rf Values
Rf value is a ratio of distance a component sample moves to the distance the solvent moves
This number is usually expressed as a decimal

Calculating Rf Values
Starting point
8 cm
4 cm
Solvent finish 10 cm
Rf = 4/10 = 0.4Rf = 8/10 = 0.8
