Assertion : Paper chromatography is a ty...

Assertion : Paper chromatography is a type of partition chromatography.
Reason : Moving phase is liquid and stationary phase is solid.

A

If both (A) and (R ) are correct and (R ) is the correct explanation of (A)

B

If both (A) and (R ) are correct, but (R ) is not the correct explanation of (A)

C

If (A) is correct, but (R ) is incorrect

D

If both (A) and (R ) are incorrect

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Chromatography paper contains water trapped in it, which acts as the stationary phase. Mobile phase is solvent or a mixture of solvents in which spotted chromatography paper is suspended. Thus, both mobile and stationary phases are liquids.
