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 better is the agreement.
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.
A r (Ar) is the relative atomic mass of argon and M u = 10 −3 kg⋅mol −1 as defined at the time. However, following the 2019 revision of the SI, R now has an exact value defined in terms of other exactly defined physical constants.
This glossary of chemistry terms is a list of terms and definitions relevant to chemistry, including chemical laws, diagrams and formulae, laboratory tools, glassware, and equipment. Chemistry is a physical science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter , as well as the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions ...
For example, if a compound travels 9.9 cm and the solvent front travels 12.7 cm, the R ƒ value = (9.9/12.7) = 0.779 or 0.78. R ƒ value depends on temperature and the solvent used in experiment, so several solvents offer several R ƒ values for the same mixture of compound. A solvent in chromatography is the liquid the paper is placed in, and ...
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.
Similar to ρ values for Hammett plots, the polar sensitivity factor ρ* for Taft plots will describe the susceptibility of a reaction series to polar effects. When the steric effects of substituents do not significantly influence the reaction rate the Taft equation simplifies to a form of the Hammett equation:
F i (x) is the molar flow rate of species i at the position x, mol/s; D is the tube diameter, m; A t is the tube transverse cross sectional area, m 2; ν is the stoichiometric coefficient, dimensionless; r is the volumetric source/sink term (the reaction rate), mol/m 3 s.
