B

Moving phase is liquid and stationary phase is liquid

C

Moving phase is solid and stationary phase is solid

D

Moving phase is solid and stationary phase is solid

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The elutent is a liquid (Moving phase )and also stationary phase is liquid.
Paper chromatography is a liquid-liquid partition chromatography on which the water adsobed or chemically bound to cellulose of paper acts as the stationary phase while the mobile phase is another liqiud which is a mixture of two or three solvents (water is one of these components )
