Standing over fifty-eight feet high is the Marble Column from the Temple of Artemis at Sardis‚ known as one of the seven wonders of the world.

The purpose of column chromatography is to separate one compound from another by the differing polarities in the compound. This technique is important in organic chemistry because certain experiments may require the separation of compounds in solution to be used for chemical synthesis and/or analysis of a particular desired product by isolating it. Fluorene is to be separated from 9-fluorenone using the technique of column chromatography. The success of separation and purity is determined with analyzation

This lab is an opportunity to observe‚ study‚ and learn about ecosystems and how the environment sustains life but in a much simpler and smaller scale which is called Eco Columns. The environmental conditions in the Eco Column could sustain life for several weeks‚ therefore over the course of the several weeks we will observe and study the interconnections between each ecosystems. A self sustaining requires components such as energy flow and chemical cycle. This experiment will evaluate our knowledge
