Community Outreach & Education Program CHROMATOGRAPHY (Adapted from: Forensic Science Activities. University of Colorado Boulder Hughes Initiative. .) DESCRIPTION: Students will use paper chromatography to separate ink molecules and identify the pen used on an unknown sample of handwriting. Students will graph and analyze data they collect using paper chromatography. PURPOSE/GOAL: Students will be able to: • Gain understanding of the purpose of chromatography. • Measure and graph pigment separation

Candy chromatography is a method of analysis of separating and comparing of dyes used in candies and food coloring. It is also a proven method to analyze candy and its complex mixture‚ without having to taste it. These complex mixtures can be separated back into pure substances. To find out the ingredients of a favorite candy‚ chromatography would help to define every ingredient found in the candy sample. The word chromatography is derived from the two Greek words‚ "chroma" meaning color

Chromatography serves mainly as a tool for the examination and separation of mixtures of chemical substances. Chromatography is using a flow of solvent or gas to cause the components of a mixture to migrate differently from a narrow starting point in a specific medium‚ in the case of this experiment‚ filter paper. It is used for the purification and isolation of various substances. There are two phases in chromatography: 1. Stationary Phase – a solid that does not move. In this experiment was the

Paper chromatography Presented by – Miss. Shruti Vilas Kharat. SYBSc / FS13164 History- Paper Chromatography (PC) was first introduced by German scientist Christian Friedrich Schonbein (1865). PC is considered to be the simplest and most widely used of the chromatographic techniques because of its applicability to isolation‚ identification and quantitative determination of organic and inorganic compounds. Definition- Paper chromatography is an analytical method technique for separating and

Candy Chromatography Background info: Paper chromatography is a logical technique used to separate works of a solution. Three examples of how we apply this technique to real-life would be: contaneminants in water‚ separation of plant pigmentation‚ and analysis of narcotics.

Introduction Paper chromatography is a method using a chromatography paper to identify the many mixtures of one simple color. The word chromatography comes from the Greek words‚ "chroma‚" meaning color‚ and "grafein‚" meaning to write. The process of this experiment is to place a colored dot‚ such as marker ink‚ onto the chromatography paper‚ one centimeter away from the triangular tip. Next dip your chromatography paper into the solvent‚ not allowing it to touch the colored dot. Let it sit for

How Chromatography Helps The Human Race Chromatography is the separation of a mixture by passing it in solution or suspension or as a vapor (as in gas chromatography) through a medium in which the components move at different rates. “Chromatography is done by making of a mixture move past the solids‚ or across the surface of a solid‚ like paper. The mixture is poured onto a solid surface. As the different components of the liquid run down the solid‚ some of them move more slowly than other. A component

Introduction Chromatography is a technique used to separate a mixture into its individual components. In this experiment‚ chromatography is done by using a thin layer chromatography (TLC) plate and filter paper. The word ‘chromatography’ itself means the separation of colours. However‚ nowadays‚ both coloured and colourless compound are used in chromatography by various methods. In chromatography‚ the separation process of mixture is mainly based upon the polarity and molecular weight of sample
