Use leaf chromatography to separate pigments in autumn leaves, spinach, or other plants. It's a fun science project suitable for all ages.

In this lab, we learned how to use paper chromatography to separate different components of a mixture. The mixture we used was food coloring. [Procedure Flowchart] Part One l Prepare three large test tubes and place them in three Erlenmeyer flasks. Label the test tubes A, B, and C. l Cut a 66cm chromatography paper into three (each 22 cm). Use a pencil to draw a lien across each strip 4 cm from one end. Cut this end into a point. l Place 2 cm deep water in each test tube. Part Two l Use a…
