unknown compound. In this experiment‚ chromatography and titration were performed to identify the unknown amino acid. Within experimental error‚ the results were consistent with the reference literature cited in this report. Experimental Thin Layer Chromatography The amino acid standards used in this experiment were Alanine‚ Glycine‚ Serine‚ and Histidine. These standards and the unknown were separated by performing a method of chromatography. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed by using a mobile

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

It was concluded that the product created was paracetamol when a thin layer chromatography test was performed and observed under ultraviolet light (which is discussed further down the page). An unknown substance was treated with acetic anhydrate and resulted with paracetamol. A compound that behaves in this matter is 4-aminophenol and is widespread in the industrial production of this drug. Upon these observations was the build up of “Chemical A” decided. When 4-aminophenol is t treated with

the slurry to be placed on the glass plates. A guide allows the applicator (with an adjustable layer thickness gauge) to be pulled along the glass plates as the slurry is dispensed. Some practice is needed to get a continuous body motion pulling the applicator across the plates to get an even layer. The glass plates must be the same thickness and extremely clean. Any oil or grease will result in a poor layer. Handle the plates with rubber gloves when washing or rinsing. Care is also needed if the edges

The solid was already in powder form therefore we did not have to crush it but it the unknown was in a tablet form‚ one would need to reduce it to a powdery-like form in order to perform this Thin-Layer Chromatography experiment. The powder solution was thoroughly mixed with a glass rod in the test tube containing

Discussion Using the Thin Layer Chromatography experiment‚ caffeine was found to be the most polar due to the fact that it stayed closer to the stationary phase. Caffeine contains four amine groups that are extremely polar as a result of the hydrogen bond and amide functional group. Acetaminophen was found to be the second most polar analgesic drug tested. Acetaminophen contains a polar alcohol group on one side and amide group on the other but also includes non-polar functional groups that consisted

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
