Medicine Analysis – Synthesising Aspirin results After recrystallisation differences between the crude and purified aspirin were noted. The impure (crude) aspirin was powered and fluffy with small clumps and was slightly yellow in colour whereas the pure aspirin has a less fluffy crystalline powder and was whiter. This showed distinct differences in the two substances but similarities were also apparent showing aspirin‚ in some level‚ was created. Before recrystallisation the crude aspirin could

Separation of Amino Acids by Paper Chromatography Chromatography is a common technique for separating chemical substances. The prefix “chroma‚” which suggests “color‚” comes from the fact that some of the earliest applications of chromatography were to separate components of the green pigment‚ chlorophyll. You may have already used this method to separate the colored components in ink. In this experiment you will use chromatography to separate and identify amino acids‚ the building blocks of proteins

Chromatography Lab Questions Pre-Lab Questions 1. A pencil is used rather than a pen to mark the “starting line” in step two because a pen or marker while be used to place a small dot of ink in the center of the X that is made with a pencil. 2. Capillary action is filling of pores in a solid with a liquid. Capillary action is caused by spotting or absorption and is allowed to seep or flow through. 3. The type of pen that will probably give better separation in this paper chromatography

Title Page Chelsea Maksin Organic Chemistry Laboratory 1 Column and Thin Layer Chromatography: The Separation of Spinach Pigments Russ Hoburg 02/15/2012 Abstract The main goal in doing the column and thin layer chromatography was to separate spinach extract into its components based on polarity and then to analyze the components. The separation of the spinach extract was done using the column chromatography with the wet/slurry packing method. Alumina was inserted into the column to act as

Proteins (ACTIVITY 8) Gallemit‚ Lacei Machelle• • January 17‚ 2013 ABSTRACT Chromatography is one of the most useful methods of separating minute amounts of complex mixtures into the pure substances contained therein. Chromatographic separations are effected by allowing the components in the mixture to be distributed in two phases‚ one being stationary‚ and the other‚ mobile. Partition chromatography involves two main distribution systems‚ one system is composed of a gas and a liquid and

Identification of Plant Pigments by Paper Chromatography Biology 1107L Introduction All living organisms require energy for their chemical processes. The ultimate source of this energy is the sun. Plants convert light energy into the chemical energy of sugars. During photosynthesis pigments are used to capture light energy. Pigments of green plants can easily be separated and identified using a technique called paper chromatography. The purpose of this experiment is to separate

Ferrocene and Acetylferrocene will be separated using column chromatography. Column chromatography is a separation technique that is used among many disciplines including biology‚ biochemistry‚ microbiology and medicine. Many common antibiotics are purified by column chromatography.1 Column chromatography allows us to separate and collect individual compounds. In this experiment‚ lumen will be the stationary phase‚ and the more polar substance will be retained on the stationary phase longer
