Question

In paper chromatography, the stationary phase is a liquid.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Paper chromatography is an analytical method used to separate colored chemicals or substances. In paper chromatography, the stationary phase is water, which is supported by the paper. The mobile phase is a solution that travels up the stationary phase, due to capillary action

The mobile phase is generally the mixture of the polar organic solvent with water, while the stationary phase is water (liquid)
