An R F value will always be in the range 0 to 1; if the substance moves, it can only move in the direction of the solvent flow, and cannot move faster than the solvent. For example, if particular substance in an unknown mixture travels 2.5 cm and the solvent front travels 5.0 cm, the retardation factor would be 0.50.
In crystallography, the R-factor (sometimes called residual factor or reliability factor or the R-value or R Work) is a measure of the disagreement between the crystallographic model and the experimental X-ray diffraction data - lower the R value lower is the disagreement or
The response factor can be expressed on a molar, volume or mass [1] basis. Where the true amount of sample and standard are equal: = where A is the signal (e.g. peak area) and the subscript i indicates the sample and the subscript st indicates the standard. [2]
In contrast to the similar concept called Retention uniformity, R d is sensitive to R f values close to 0 or 1, or close to themselves. If two values are not separated, it is equal to 0. For example, the R f values (0,0.2,0.2,0.3) (two compounds not separated at 0.2 and one at the start ) result in R D equal to 0, but R U equal to 0.3609.
Another function is the multispot response function (MRF) as developed by De Spiegeleer et al.{Analytical Chemistry (1987):59(1),62-64} It is based also of differences product. This function always lies between 0 and 1. When two RF values are equal, it is equal to 0, when all RF values are equal-spread, it is equal to 1.
In chemistry, a chemical test is a qualitative or quantitative procedure designed to identify, quantify, or characterise a chemical compound or chemical group. Purposes
The relative mobility (called Rf value or Rm value) is defined as the distance migrated by the protein band divided by the distance migrated by the buffer front. The distances are each measured from the beginning of the separation gel. The migration of the buffer front roughly corresponds to the migration of the dye contained in the sample buffer.
This is related to cryoscopy, which determines the same value from the cryoscopic constant (of freezing point depression). This property of elevation of boiling point is a colligative property. It means that the property, in this case ΔT, depends on the number of particles dissolved into the solvent and not the nature of those particles.
