Is the the rf value of lycopene and with what solvent can you use as a mobile phase on a TLC?

I don't know the answer here but I looked on the Internet and found something that may get you started. I found the Rf value for lycopene to be between 0.4 and 0.6 and the best mobile phase to be a mixture of polar/non-polar solvent. I couldn't find specifics.

the answer is c

the rf value depends on the kind of plate used (silica, alumina) and the mobile phase or developing solvent used. Lycopene has a very high Rf (~0.9) on silica gel when petroleum ether (75%) and methylene chloride (25%)is used as mobile phase.

The Rf value depends on the intra- and extra- cellular fluids which make up the cell. When you divide .75 by .25 you get the mole (m.)
