    You explained TLC better than my university chemistry professor in half the time.

      I wonder if that's because in the class we don't pay any attention, while in the exam session our dopamin/serotonin receptors suddenly get busy... Or some people are just charismatic while others, simply are not.

    • @novacrystalas
      @novacrystalas 10 лет назад +4

      Panagiotis Atmatzidis No, I really do believe her explanation was simply great. My chemistry class had severely curved grading because everyone basically failed. I suspect that everyone did poorly because the professor was not good at lecturing. The professor was a wonderful and likeable person, but his lectures were bad. For example I got something like 50% on the final and received an A- in the course because the grading was adjusted so much. Everyone in that class had horrible grades. My test marks were usually 30-40% higher than the class average, but I still felt like nothing made sense in his class... I really did try hard and pay attention too.

    stationary phase: the plate with silica gel on it
    mobile phase: the solvent or mixture of solvents in a beaker
    draw a pencil line 10mm up on the plate.
    use a toothpick to dot the sample onto the plate
    put 9mm2 of the solvent in a beaker.
    place plate in beaker. add a lid.
    wait for the mobile phase to move, until it’s almost at the top.
    take it out and draw a pencil line where it got up to.
    use a uv lamp to see the results.
    parts that moved further were more attracted to the solvent- less polar.
    parts that moved less far were more attracted to the silica (which is very polar) - so they are more polar

    moved far: less polar
    attracted more to solvent
    moved not far: more polar
    attracted more to silica gel
    silica gel is very polar

      I think this is wrong explaination!
      moved far: less polar, less attracted to the solvent
      moved not far: more polar, more attracted to the solvent
      solvent is polar.

      @andreistephen4965 10 лет назад

      Mercedes Malone I have not gotten to that yet on my course but I belive it has something to do with weather the component is more attracted to the plate or the solvent if it is more attractedbto the plate It only moves a littel uf it is attraxted to the solvent it moves alot I dont really know feel free to correct me

    • @hyeballer
      @hyeballer 9 лет назад +5

      +Mercedes Malone
      Rf value's can help determine which spot is more polar (lower the spot = more polar)... However, TLC spots may vary due to the size and shape of the molecule. So to simply say that a spot is "more polar" because its lower isn't necessarily 100% correct.

    • @misssweethearted
      @misssweethearted 9 лет назад +1

      hyeballer actually Rf values tell you about the affinity of the solute to the TLC plate. A high Rf value means a lower affinity for the TLC plate and greater solubility in the solvent.

  • @mariammansour291
    @mariammansour291 8 лет назад

    What if you use a polar solvent? Would that change the distance the spots travel? Wouldn't the nonpolar compound not travel as much because of the polar solvent?

      +Lily Li In this type of chromatography, compounds with more affinity to the solvent will travel further along with the solvent.

    • @PrideofPitchers
      @PrideofPitchers 7 лет назад +10

      +VirgiliusRomanus She explained the polarity of the solvent briefly, but not a solvent that consists of compounds with different polarities. For example, you could have a mixture of 5 parts ethyl acetate and 95 parts hexane (hexane being nonpolar) as your solvent, which will affect the distribution of compounds on the plate.
      In this case, nonpolar compounds won't be attracted to the stationary silicone phase or acetate and will travel very high up the plate because of their affinity to hexane. Polar compounds won't likely move very far because 5 parts acetate isn't polar enough to break that adsorption to the silicone plating.
      hope that helped.

      the components that you were trying to separate will end up all reaching the end and run off the TLC plate along with the solvent

    • @hyeballer
      @hyeballer 9 лет назад +2

      Josh... Technically speaking, you can let it go to the top...as long as you remove it the moment it reaches the top. As Mary C stated, if you were to leave it a prolonged period the spots will continue to run up.

      @ac4190 5 лет назад

      Silica, (SiO2)x, is polar due to the polarity exhibited between the oxygen and silicon atoms. The silicon atoms are more electropositive than oxygen, and oxygen atoms are more electronegative than silicon.

    Why does she say nonpolar molecules are attracted to the mobile phase, when the mobile phase is at the bottom? Why does it travel up higher? If someone knows and could answer it'd be much appreciated!

    • @meinkanta
      @meinkanta 8 лет назад

      The mobile phase has travelled up the TLC plate by capillary action - the purple line she drew on the top of the TLC plate inticates how far the mobile phase moved.
      The less polar molecule being more attracted to the mobile phase means it moved further.

      @meinkanta 8 лет назад

    • @meinkanta
      @meinkanta 8 лет назад

      +Arsank47 Okay, so your stationary phase would be the TLC plate, which probably uses silica. The mobile phase is the solvent you're using. I'm not sure about the others, but I'd guess the detection system would be calculation of the Rf values and comparing them to a database.
