Rf values are typically rounded to two significant figures, as this reflects the precision of the measurements involved in chromatography. However, in some cases, rounding to three significant figures may be appropriate if the experimental data supports that level of precision. Ultimately, consistency in reporting and the context of the analysis should guide the decision on how many significant figures to use.
