it doesn't depends upon the TLC plates.. as it depends upon the solvents in which these compounds migrate.

Compounds with lower polarity tend to travel further on TLC plates because they interact less with the stationary phase and are more soluble in the mobile phase. Compounds with higher polarity interact more with the stationary phase, thus travel a shorter distance.

The less the polarity of the compound, the greater its interaction with the mobile solvent so it moves up the TLC plate further.

Why different compounds travel different distances on the piece of paper?

i think that it is because some compounds are more dense than others so they don't move that much or that far as others do. Whereas other compounds are "thinner" than some and can move with more ease causing them to travel greater distances. It also has to do with the amount of friction between the paper and the certain compound.

How can a smell move around?

Smells move around through the air as volatile compounds are released from a source and carried by air currents. These compounds stimulate sensory cells in our nose, allowing us to detect and perceive the smell. Smells can travel further and faster in open spaces with good air circulation.
