Paper chromatography is used for:
Correct answer: B. Qualitative Analysis
- A. Elemental Analysis
- B. Qualitative Analysis
- C. Industrial Purification
- D. Structural Analysis
Explanation
Explanation:Chromatography is very useful for organic synthesis for separation, purification, and isolation of products. They are equally important for quantitative and qualitative analysis and for determination of purity of a substance. Elemental analysis involves determining the elemental composition of a substance. Paper chromatography is not used for this purpose since it separates components based on their physical properties rather than their elemental composition.Industrial purification typically involves separating and purifying a specific component from a mixture at a large scale. Paper chromatography is not commonly used for industrial purification. Paper chromatography is used for qualitative analysis, not for structural analysis.
