favorite candies? Chromatography can solve that for you. Chromatography is a separation technique used by scientists for separating both organic and inorganic compounds. There are four different types of chromatography: thin layer‚ liquid‚ gas‚ and paper‚ but for this lab paper chromatography will be used. Who invented chromatography? A Russian botanist named Mikhail Semyonovich Tsvet invented chromatography in 1901 while doing research on plant pigments. Why is chromatography so important? This

Data and Conclusions: The purpose of this experiment was to learn how to use distillation and gas chromatography to separate and identify different compounds from a given mixture. There are several kinds of distillation methods. However‚ the method that we used in this experiment was fractional distillation. This method is used when trying to separate two different volatile compounds whose boiling points differ by 40-50°C or more. If the boiling points are too close‚ this method

Liquid Chromatography – Laboratory #18 Introduction: We are using liquid chromatography to separate the colored substances in grape-flavored drinks. We separate the component dyes‚ and then we separate the flavorings and citric acids. Background: Chromatography is a process that is used to separate a substance into its component parts. The separation occurs between the stationary and moving phase of the lab. The moving phase consists of a fluid and the stationary phase consists of a solid

Anionic Exchange Ion Chromatography to Detect the Anions Concentrations in the water Samples Narendra Boppana‚ Nasser Ali‚ Martin Chavez‚ Sear Introduction: Ion Exchange Chromatography is a process where the ionic exchange occurs in between the stationary phase and the sample in the mobile phase‚ by using this ionic exchange phenomenon it is easy to separate the compounds. Ionic exchange depends on the electrical properties

What will happen when you put a drop of water on wax paper? I think that it will just sit there and do nothing. First I put a drop of water on the paper Second I watched it to see what it will do Finally I wrote down that it just stayed still My hypothesis is correct What will happen when you move the water around with a toothpick? I think it will go flat and dissolve in the in the wax paper. First I picked up the toothpick Second I moved the water around with the toothpick Finally

Elena High School‚ Marikina City Summary All people need energy in various forms such as heat‚ light‚ sound‚ etc. to sustain their everyday lives. Although these various forms of energy are equally needed by people‚ not all of them are always available‚ especially the energy needed to power up their main appliances which is electricity. Due to the inevitability

TLC is used because it is “sensitive‚ fast‚ simple and inexpensive analytical technique”2 (Mohrig 151). The unknown solid (unknown #3 in this case) used in the experiment was obtained and added to a 2.5ml of Ethanol/dichloromethane in a test tube. This was the solvent used in the experiment because Dichloromethane volatility and ability to dissolve a wide range of organic compounds makes it a useful solvent for many chemical processes. The solid was already in powder form therefore we did not have

The purpose of this lab was to use gas chromatography to determine the relative amounts of the three components of gas products from the dehydration reaction of 1- and 2-Butanol with sulfuric acid and the dehydrobromination reaction of 1- and 2-Bromobutane with potassium tert-butoxide. E1 reactions are two-step unimolecular reactions. The first step of an E1 reaction occurs when a leaving group‚ which consists of a weak base‚ leaves an organic compound‚ leaving an intermediate carbocation. In the

Objectives: To use the process of chromatography to separate plant pigments. To compare the plant pigments found in spinach and red leaf lettuce leaves. Hypotheses: I believe the spinach leaf in the acetone will have a higher pigment of chlorophyll a and the red leaf lettuce will have a higher pigment of anthocyanin. I believe the spinach leaf in distilled water will have a higher pigment of chlorophyll a and the red leaf lettuce will have a higher pigment of anthocyanin. Discussion Questions:

Paper chromatography is a useful technique for separating and identifying pigments and other molecules from cell extracts that contain a complex mixture of molecules. The solvent moves up the paper by capillary action‚ which occurs as a result of the attraction of solvent molecules to the paper and the attraction of solvent molecules to one another. As the solvent moves up the paper‚ it carries along any substances dissolved in it. The pigments are carried along at different rates because they
