Q

what are the 2 phases in chromatography?

A
  • Substances are picked up and carried by a mobile phase (liquid or gas).
  • The mobile phase then moves through a stationary phase (solid or viscous liquid).

Q

What can we say if the Rf values of a reference and a spot match in all solvents?

A

It is very likely that the mixture contains the reference compound.

38
Q

This practical investigates the use of paper chromatography in separating mixtures. The process is:

A
  1. Use a pencil to draw a horizontal line near the bottom of the chromatography paper.
  2. Place samples of known food colourings (A-D) next to an unknown substance (X) on this ‘start line’.
  3. Place the paper in a beaker containing a small volume of solvent.
  4. Let the solvent move to a few cm below the end of the paper.
  5. By comparing spots produced by X with those produced by A-D, you will be able to identify the unknown substance.

Q

Which direction does the solvent move in paper chromatography?
