A mixture of X and Y was loaded in the column of silica. It was eluted by alcohol-water mixture. Compound Y eluted in preference to compound X. Compare the extent of adsorption of X and Y on column.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

A compound which is more strongly adsorbed on the column is eluted later than the compound which is weakly adsorbed. Since compound Y is eluted is preference to compound X, therefore, compound X is more strongly adsorbed than the compound Y.
