When the $TLC$ solvent reaches a height of $10 \, cm$,compound $(A)$ reaches $8 \, cm$ and compound $(B)$ reaches $6 \, cm$. Calculate the $R_f$ values of $(A)$ and $(B)$.

  • A
    $R_f(A) = 0.8, R_f(B) = 0.6$
  • B
    $R_f(A) = 0.6, R_f(B) = 0.8$
  • C
    $R_f(A) = 0.08, R_f(B) = 0.06$
  • D
    $R_f(A) = 8, R_f(B) = 6$
