How is chromatography used to separate mixtures?

  • 1

Chromatography separates mixtures based on the differing rates at which components move through a stationary phase. It’s useful for separating and analyzing complex mixtures, like inks or chemical compounds.

  1. Chromatography separates components of a mixture based on their different affinities for a stationary phase and a mobile phase. The mixture is applied to a stationary phase (like paper or a column), and a mobile phase (like a solvent) moves through it. Components travel at different rates, allowing them to be separated and analyzed. It’s widely used in laboratories to separate and identify complex chemical mixtures and biological samples.
