Science Buddies: Paper Chromatography: Advanced Version 2

Curated by ACT

Chromatography is a method used to separate mixtures of compounds and to identify each compound in the mixture. You may have separated the different inks in a black marker by using a strip of paper and water. There are many different types of chromatography: paper, thin-layer, high-performance thin-layer, gas, and more. You will be using paper or thin-layer chromatography to analyze the compounds from different plants. Chromatography is used by analytical chemists, organic chemists, and many other types of scientists since it is so easy and affordable. If you want to get a head start in chemistry, this is a great way to do so.
