I never really paid much attention to the chart number etc since I've been pulling them up on my ipad for awhile now.
The sequencing still comes into play even with the electronic flight books; as you can tab through to the chart you want swiftly without reading each title because you know where it should be.
It also helps when doing your approach briefing to say the ID of the chart number you are using.
I found the links I was looking for. This one does just airport diagrams

This one does all Jepp charts (big file)

So, to answer your original question.... the runway/RVR data will be on the 10-09a, 20-09a, 30-09a.... or at smaller airports it’s combined with the diagram on the back of the first approach chart for that airport in that city. If it’s an ILS it will be chart 11-01.
Eventually they’ll all be 10-09 & 10-09a. They’ve been slowly converting ever since Lexington KY.
