Chromatography

Chromatography

1. Chromatography is a method of separating substances (which uses only small quantities) e.g. the different pigments in ink and dye. This is the blot method.

2. This is similar to the blot method but it move up a piece of filter paper instead of spreading out. This is the acsending method

   • The pigments are separated by size. Smaller monocules move quicker so can travel further up the paper. Larger monocules travel slower therefore don't get as far.
