PAPER AND THIN-LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY Lab 47 Michael Stravino‚ CHM 2211L‚ June 3‚ 2012 Abstract Thin-Layer Chromatography and Paper Chromatography can be used to identify identical compounds‚ unknown compounds‚ the number of components in a mixture‚ as well as other important uses not explored in this laboratory. This experiment explores these techniques to identify an unknown amino acid by TLC and analyze food colors using paper chromatography. By using 2.0 mL of dimethoxyethane and 18 mL of

Task 3: How could Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) have been used to prepare a pure sample of aspirin? The method of using thin layer chromatography is easy‚ quick and relatively cheap to carry out this makes it ideal for preparing pure samples of aspirin. Equipment Required: • Thin Layer Chromatography Paper • Ruler • Pencil • Solvent • Beaker • Micro Capillary • Access to a fume cupboard • UV light • Clingfilm • Individuals sample of aspirin • Pure sample of aspirin • Sample of salicylic acid Method:

Column and Thin Layer Chromatography Beverly Abstract: Plant pigments were separated and concentrated from a crude spinach extract through the use of column chromatography and an eluatropic series of hexanes‚ hexane/acetone‚ and methanol. The pigments were analyzed using thin layer chromatography with a 30% ethyl acetate/hexane developing solvent. Introduction: Chromatography is a technique used to separate a mixture of two or more components based on

it is possible to identify which peak correlates with which compound. Figure 2 contains a peak at around 500 and 700 nm which is a good indicator that that would-be chlorophyll b. This makes sense because this was the bottom band from the thin layer chromatography and chlorophyll b is the most polar compound. Chlorophyll B contains an aldehyde where chlorophyll A has a methyl group making it slightly more polar. Following that‚ figure 4 contains

Objective: The objective of the lab is to separate the caffeine samples we are using‚ using thin layer chromatography. The solvent we are using for the separation is 3:1 mixture of Chloroform and Acetone. Principle: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is an important technique that is useful for separating organic compounds. TLC is often used to monitor the progress of organic reactions and to check the purity of products. Separations in Thin layer chromatography involve distributing a mixture of

Separating Substances: Identifying Food Dyes with TLC Background The color of food is an integral part of our culture and enjoyment of life. Who would deny the mouth-watering appeal of a deep-pink strawberry ice cream on a hot summer’s day or a golden Thanksgiving turkey garnished with fresh green parsley? Even early civilizations such as the Romans recognized that people "eat with their eyes" as well as their palates. Saffron and other spices were often used to provide a rich yellow color

Briefing Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is an extremely valuable analytical technique. It provides a rapid separation of compounds‚ and gives an indication of the number and nature of the components of a mixture. TLC can also be used to identify compounds by comparison with known samples‚ to check the purity of a compound‚ or to monitor the progress of a reaction‚ an extraction‚ or a purification procedure. This experiment will introduce you to the mechanics of TLC‚ and the chemical principles

Silveira Date of Submission: September 25‚ 2013 Lab Section: CHE110L*Z Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to use two common laboratory methods to see how mixtures can be separated based on physical properties. Paper chromatography will be used to separate the dye colors from M&M candy to see which colors contain yellow #5. Gravimetric separation will be used to separate salt and sand from a mixture. Procedure The procedure for this lab can be found on pages 16 – 30 in “General Chemistry
