1.	Assertion: Paper chromatography is a type of partition chromatography. Reason: Moving phase is liquid and stationary phase is solid.
Answer» If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct EXPLANATION of assertion If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion If assertion is true but reason is false. If both assertion and reason are false. Solution :Chromatography paper CONTAINS water trapped in it, which acts as the stationary phase.
