    What is the main purpose of running a column chromatography? Similar to TLC. column chromatography is based on analytes being partitioned between a stationary phase (not moving) and a mobile phase (moving). What is most commonly used as stationary phase in a column? Is this material polar or non-polar? In this experiment, you will use different solvents to run column chromatography separation of different pigments extracted from spinach leaves. These solvents are a mixture of acetone and hexanes.

    Acetylation of ferrocene and column chromatography Lab 4: Question 3 Homework • Unanswered Important ... The solvent is changed from petroleum ether to diethyl ether after the ferrocene is collected from the column. Why not use diethyl ether the entire time? Because diethyl ether is more polar than petroleum ether Because petroleum ether selectively elutes ferrocene since it contains more ether oxygens than diethyl ether Because diethyl ether would lead to a poorer separation of ferrocene and acetylferrocene Both a...

    8.5 TLC is commonly employed with column chromatography to monitor the separation of colorless compounds. The column is allowed to elute into many containers, usually test tubes. This is followed by a TLC on a long plate containing the same stationary phase as the column chromatography. Since a large number of tubes must be spotted, by spotting only every other (or every three etc.) tube on the plate. After visualization (by UV), the TLC plate is used to judge which...
