Paper Chromatography | Science Project

What food dyes are in your candy? Is black ink really black? What gives fall leaves their color? These are all questions that you can investigate using paper chromatography - a technique that can separate mixtures into their individual components. This video explains how paper chromatography works, walks you through each step of a paper chromatography experiment, and provides tips and tricks for troubleshooting. We also introduce a couple of fun science projects that you can do using paper chromatography. You can find written instructions for these projects on our website at www.sciencebuddies.org/scienc....

In general paper chromatography is a great method to find out what kind of substances is present in a sample mixture

[@rajibsahoo8433]

Thank you for the very helpful video!

[@shiv161981]

The greatest video 😍😊

[@parisprasad5375]

I did this in my chemistry class and did so many things wrong that I was like it’s the worst experiment ever! Turns out when I looked over the procedure again and if I were to do it without the teacher’s eyes under me the whole time, I would have found this experiment very fun and rewarding😊

[@whatevess2229]

i am trying to make this project myself what mistakes should i avoid?

[@porcelynnehawthorne8399]

very interesting

[@ET-gf8cq]

Good job 👏🏼 👍

[@fatemabegzad2032]

Anyone here from 2024

[@ElinaElkana-hd4ly]

What type of water do you use

[@sierrahlight9243]

Most likely purified or distilled

[@waluuwilson4719]

Hi friends thier

[@isuridewmini]

Can we use A4 paper instead of filter paper

[@Science.Buddies]

Hi - we recommend using the filter paper for this experiment. Printer paper will not work. You can use white coffee filters or thick paper towels but they will not work as well as the filter paper.

@@Science.Buddies oh thank u

[@jamespark6587]

This video is so good nvm it's garbage.

[@sherylesquivel7183]

Shut

[@Heiressesoftheking]

fr tho]

[@solar_potatoe]

why ?

[@user-jw8tk3rm9z]

Come on man this video was pretty educational but I don't think people like you would be able to understand it. Try your best recommend you watch it again if you still think it's garbage
NEways nobody asked for your opinion so you might as well keep to yourself
