Chromatography: Separating Mixtures

Introduction:

Magic marker inks are often mixtures of several compounds. Paper chromatography is a common method of separating various components of a mixture. After separation, you can observe the different colors that make up a particular color of magic marker ink.

You can also calculate a ratio Rf, which compares how far each compound traveled to how far each solvent (substance that dissolves another substance) traveled during the experiment.

Rf = Ds/Df

Ds = Distance traveled by the compound

Df = Distance traveled by the solvent

Materials:

coffee filter, tape, isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol), water, 3 different color magic markers (not permanent); 3 identical tall, narrow drinking glasses; metric ruler, 3 pencils

Pre-lab Questions:

List one extensive and one intensive property of marker ink.

Intensive: Amount Doesn't Matter

Extensive: Amount Matters

An extensive property of marker ink would be volume or ink.

An intensive property of marker ink would be the color of ink.

Define mixture.

A combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combine with one another.

Is tap water a heterogeneous or homogenous mixture? Explain your answer.

Tap water is a homogeneous mixture. I think this because I can see that it has uniform. It doesnât contain any different molecules as well.

Is isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) a heterogeneous or homogenous mixture? Explain your answer.

I believe rubbing alcohol is a homogeneous mixture. I think this because I can physically see that it has uniform. It also stays in the same phase.

Procedure:

1. Cut 3 strips of coffee filter. Be sure that the strips are much narrower and slightly taller than the drinking glasses.

2. In the center the strips, about 3 cm from one end, place a dot of the marker to be tested. The dots should be about 0.2 cm in diameter and dark enough to be clearly visible.

3. Place about 2 cm of water in each glass.

4. Tape the unmarked end of each strip to the center of a pencil so that the strip hangs down when the pencil is held horizontally.

5. Carefully insert the strips into the glasses, dotted end down. The dot must be above the water, and the sides of the coffee filters cannot touch the sides of the glasses.

6. Let the setup stand for 20 minutes. Follow procedure 8 as your set up stands.

7. Record your observations after 20 minutes in the table below. Measure Df (in cm) for the solvent. Measure the Ds (in cm) for each color that you see on the coffee filter (there may not be three). Calculate the Rf for each color using the equation in the Introduction section.

8. Repeat steps 1â7, except place about 2 cm of isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) in each glass instead of water.

9. Clean up your work area.

Solvent: isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol)

5. What evidence is there that marker ink is a mixture?

The marker ink is a mixture. The evidence is when the marker ink separated.

6. Each compound in the marker ink is represented by a color. Did one compound travel farther than the others? Explain why you think that this is the case.

Yes, I found out that the darker of the three colors traveled further.

7. Did the compounds travel farther in the water or the isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol)? Explain why you think that this is the case.

The compounds traveled faster in the water than the rubbing alcohol. I think the reason why is because water is smaller on a molecular level versus rubbing alcohol. So it is easier for the dyes to separate.

8. How could you improve upon the accuracy of your Rf measurements?

I feel that accuracy could be improved if we changed the scale measurement to millimeters (mm) instead of cm (centimeters).

Water traveled faster than the rubbing alcohol. I personally think it has to do with something like the size of the molecule like the smaller the molecule the easier it is.

Separation of a Mixture Laboratory

In this experiment we will separate the different components of a mixture made up of sand (SiO2) and sodium chloride (NaCl, commonly known as salt). Both of these compounds are solid white crystals, so it is difficult to tell them apart with the naked eye. However, each component exhibits different physical properties that can be used to separate one from the other. There are several physical separation techniques that can be used to determine the percent composition of the original mixture.

Materials & Apparatus:

Sand/salt mixture provided in your Lab Kit

2 - Erlenmeyer Flasks

Scale

Water

Graduated Cylinder

Background:

It is important to know how to separate mixtures because many reactions carried out in the laboratory produce mixtures of different compounds. It is often necessary to separate the components of these mixtures, which can be done using several techniques. We will explore a few of these techniques: sublimation, filtration, evaporation and decantation.

Sublimation is the process of a substance passing from the solid to the gaseous state without first passing through the liquid state. Not all substances possess this characteristic. In fact, most substances to NOT sublime under normal conditions, but must be placed under low pressure and low temperature. Ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) and iodine (I2) are both substances that do sublime under normal conditions.

Filtration is the process used to separate the components of a mixture of solid substances that differ in solubility in a certain solvent. You can separate a mixture of solid substances by adding a liquid to the original mixture in which only some of the components of the mixture will dissolve. The resulting mixture, which contains both the dissolved and undissolved substances, is then poured through a filter paper--a porous paper that allows liquids to pass through while retaining any solids. The liquid that has passed through the filter paper is called the filtrate; the solid on the paper is the residue.

Evaporation can also be used to separate the solvent from the solution. A solution can be slowly heated in an Erlenmeyer flask, and the solute will remain after the solvent has evaporated.

Decantation is the process of separating a liquid from a solid (sediment) by gently pouring the liquid from the solid so as not to disturb the solid.

For this experiment, a practical plan is as follows: First combine the solid mixture of the two compounds, sodium chloride (NaCl) and sand (SiO2), with water. This will dissolve the sodium chloride. The sand will not dissolve into the water. We will "filter" the entire mixture, which allows the water in which the sodium chloride is dissolved to pass through, but not the sand. We will now have separated the sodium chloride and the sand. Then, we must evaporate off the water so that we weigh only the two original solids and not the water we added.

Procedure:

(NOTE: Do NOT dispose of any part of your lab until you are 100% positive you do not need it again. It is good practice to keep all parts of your lab until you are finished.)

Record the letter (A, B, C, or D) of your mixture (on the bag contents label) on the line above Data Table 1 below.

Obtain an Erlenmeyer flask [label it 1] and weigh and record the mass.

Add the entire contents of your unknown mixture bag to the flask and weigh and record the mass of the Erlenmeyer flask and the mixture.

Add 10 mL of water (preferably distilled) to the solid in the Erlenmeyer flask [Erlenmeyer flask 1] and stir gently for 5 minutes.

Weigh a new clean, dry Erlenmeyer flask [Erlenmeyer flask 2].

Decant the liquid from Erlenmeyer flask 1 into Erlenmeyer flask 2. This may work better if you place a utensil against the lip of the pouring flask to encourage a slow steady stream of liquid into the second flask.

Add another 10 mL of water to the solid in Erlenmeyer flask 1, stir for 1-2 minutes, and decant this liquid into the Erlenmeyer flask 2 as before.

Repeat with still another 10 mL of water. This process extracts (dissolves) the soluble sodium chloride from the insoluble sand.

Allow the two flasks to dry. Let them dry until the sand appears dry and freely moves when you shake the Erlenmeyer flask a little and the sodium chloride looks dry.

To speed up the process, you can heat the flasks slowly over a burner set on low on your stove top or in the oven (set at 125-200ËF). I would suggest heating it on top of another pan (NOT nonstick coated) Use a low setting and watch closely as you donât want it to boil over.

Allow the Erlenmeyer flasks to cool to room temperature (if they were heated) and weigh the Erlenmeyer flasks and their contents separately. Record their masses in the appropriate sections of the table.

To ensure that there is no water remaining, heat for another 5-10 minutes oven or 1-2 minutes on the stove. Allow to cool to room temperature and reweigh the Erlenmeyer flask. If it is within 0.3 g of your initial weighing you can stop. If the second weighing is not within 0.3 g of your initial weighing, reheat again, cool, and reweigh. The difference between this mass and the mass of the empty Erlenmeyer flask is the mass of NaCl.
