Abstract In order to experiment with distinct components of a mixture‚ they must be first separated so they can be observed individually. This is accomplished in this lab by the technique called thin layer chromatography (TLC). TLC involves a stationary phase‚ which the TLC plates as well as a mobile phase‚ which could be one of two solvents used: ethanol-acetone for TLC. Dyes in a sample separate consequently because of their unique polarities. As a result‚ nonpolar substances travel further

The shell of the egg is cracking all around. 3. 16 and ¼cm 4. 72 1. The shell is completely gone‚ leaving a thin membrane that surrounds the yolk. 2. The egg itself looks flimsy and appears transparent. 3. 17cm Conclusion: Be sure to answer the following reflection questions in the conclusion of your lab report: 1. How much did the egg change in size?

to a lesser extent the cormels. As food for human consumption‚ the nutritional value of the various parts of cocoyam is primarily caloric (Davies et al‚ 2008). The underground cormels provide easily digested starch; and the leaves are nutritious spinach-like vegetable‚ which give a lot of minerals‚ vitamins and thiamine (Tambong et al‚ 1997). There are two major types commonly grown in Nigeria‚ namely; Colocasia spp and Xanthosoma spp. In Nigeria‚ it is regarded as a major crop especially in female

inert‚ so it won’t react with the sample to give a false reading. The stationary phase is a substance fixed in place to which the sample adsorbs because of the attractive forces that exist between molecules (intermolecular forces). In GC‚ it’s a thin layer of a high boiling point (bpt)‚ non-volatile liquid or polymer adsorbed onto an inert solid support or silica particles. GC requires compounds

3. This is due to the structure of disperse red 9 being more symmetrical than that of disperse blue 3 and having more nonpolar bonds. Disperse blue 3 is more polar because it has a hydroxide bond and has a larger dipole. The principle behind using column chromatography is that it separates compounds based on polarity. The alumina serves to allow for a purer separation than TLC plates because it has a more polar surface than silica gel does. The less polar dye moves first because it is not as soluble

Results and discussion Isolation of beta carotene and chlorophylls by column chromatography Upon the loading of S1 (the extract of the plant leaves in hexane)‚ a yellow band appeared at the top part of the silica column immediately after the solvent level descended to just above the sand layer. This yellow band later developed to about 2 centimetres

Formation has been correlated to Middle Ordovician in age due to fossils found within its shale and limestone layers. The two fossils found in these layers were the graptolites and conodonts. The lithology of this formation from outcrops that have been examined shows evidence that the top layers of this formation are chert‚ followed by a rather large middle section of fissile shale‚ with thin beds of limestone
