1 Chromatography L/O :- To understand chromatography, and how it works

2 Chromatography can be used to separate dissolved substances Substances which dissolve well move further up the filter paper

3 Chromatography Look at the chromatography results: - bluepurpleredbluepurplered solvent start line in pencil chromatography paper completed chromatogram chromatography apparatus at start Why is the start line drawn in pencil? In which direction did the molecule move? Why is the ink drawn well above the solvent level? Purple is made up of blue and red dye. Where would the red appear on our chromatogram?

4 bluepurpleredbluepurplered solvent start line in pencil chromatography paper completed chromatogram chromatography apparatus at start The start line is drawn in pencil so more colour spots are not added! The molecules moved upwards The ink is drawn well above the solvent level to stop it dissolving in the solvent Purple is made up of blue and red dye. The red dot would appear as shown

5 R G B X Chromatography Chromatography can be used to separate a mixture of different inks. Some example questions… 1 2 3 Z 1) Ink X contains two different colours. What are they? 2) Which ink is ink Z made out of?
