Chromatography lab Purpose: To separate food colorings into their component dyes using paper chromatography. Materials: Chromatography paper‚ Food coloring‚ Ruler‚ Pencil‚ Solvent solution‚ Test tubes‚ Test tube rack. Safety precaution: wear aprons‚ to make sure that you don’t get any of the alcohol on your clothes‚ and if you break a test tube you don’t get glass on you. Procedure: See-attached handout. Results: See chromatography with Audrey’s lab report.

Abstract In this experiment paper chromatography was used in order to identify two unknown amino acids using eight known amino ones. The two unknown ones were identified by comparing the distance they travelled up the chromatography paper and their Rf values to the corresponding values of the other eight known amino acids. The unknown amino acids identified were Glycine and Methionine. Introduction Proteins in cells are important in many ways. There are different types of proteins such as

“Aspirin has been used for many years; it is well-understood‚ effective‚ inexpensive and widely available.” - Dr. Jeffrey Berger In the last 30 years medicines prescribed by doctors have changed beyond all recognition. Our better knowledge of the nature of diseases and their management has led to the replacement of many old remedies by new ones specifically designed for each illness. Everyone has known for years that

Chromatography • • • Separation based on polarity of compounds Two potential phases for a compound to exist in: mobile and stationary Partitioning of compounds between mobile phase and stationary phase occurs: o Compounds that are less polar move more in the mobile phase‚ those that are more polar “stick” more on the stationary phase o These polarity differences cause compounds move at different rates and therefore can be separated 1. Mobile Phase: the phase the moves; can be gas or

Commercial Aspirin Tablet Analysis Tuesday Evening Intro: The purpose of this lab was to analyze commercial aspirin tablets. To do so‚ the percent acetylsalicyclic acid (active ingredient) in tablets using acid-base titration was determined‚ the percent acetylsalicyclic acid in tablets by formation of a colored iron(III)-salicylate complex was determined using spectrometry‚ and then the percents from each process was compared. Acetylsalicylic acid is produced when salicylic acid and acetic

retention on paper chromatography Design and carry out a scientific investigation on any one factor that affects retention on paper chromatography CHEMISTRY LAB REPORT CHEMISTRY LAB REPORT Name: Sri Danielle Class: 9A Teacher: Sir Ajay Name: Sri Danielle Class: 9A Teacher: Sir Ajay Aim My aim for this experiment is to find out how different types of solvent will affect the retention factor in paper chromatography. Hypothesis I think that there will be a high RF value in paper chromatography

Rica Paulene‚ Moises‚ Patrisha Kate‚ Policarpio‚ Jairus Paolo‚ Rolda‚ Zylene Joy Department of Biology‚ College of Science‚ University of the Philippines Baguio April 23‚ 2013 ABSTRACT The objective of this experiment was to apply the technique of paper chromatography as a method for separating individual plant pigments contained in plant tissue extracts containing pigment blends. The process of chromatography separates molecules because of the

When people hear candy chromatography‚ they don’t know what to think about it. They of course know that it had something to do with candy. But just don’t know what. Candy chromatography is fun and simple. Candy Chromatography is a fun project‚ plus it has to do with candy. Candy Chromatography is an experiment to find out the true colors of the dyes in candy. When you put a skittle or an M&M in your hand in hot weather‚ the candy tends to bleed the color. And sometimes it shows more than one color

Chromatography is a laboratory technique for the separation of a mixture. The mixture is dissolved in a fluid called the mobile phase‚ which carries it through a structure holding another material called the stationary phase. The various constituents of the mixture travel at different speeds‚ causing them to separate. The separation is based on differential partitioning between the mobile and stationary phases. Subtle differences in a compound’s partition coefficient result in differential retention

5.05 Ink Chromatography Basic Lab Components Background Information and Research: 1. Paper chromatography type of method that is used to separate mixtures of substances from a solution. 2. There are many uses for paper chromatography‚ especially concerning the fields of chemistry and biology. One use is to allow scientists to detect any sort of contaminants is rainwater. Another use is to identify clues at a crime scene such as blood‚ ink‚ or drugs. However‚ the more common use is to
