Data Analysis• Trends
o 3:2 ratio solvent resolved most pigments
o Red leaf extract separated more pigments than cranberry extract
o Pigments 1 and 2 have greatest difference in R(f) values
o 3:2 ratio created largest differences in R(f) values between chloroplast pigments
![Page 22: Observing the Effect of Polarity in the Separation of Pigments](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/5a4d1ad47f8b9ab0599726d4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Problems Encountered
• Recording R(f) values from a chromatogramo Distinguishing between two bands
o Determining bands
o Determining the furthest extent of the solvent front
• Determining when a chromatogram is finishedo Remaining solvent
![Page 23: Observing the Effect of Polarity in the Separation of Pigments](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/5a4d1ad47f8b9ab0599726d4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
How Problems Were Overcome • Define standards for measuring R(f)
valueso Measure to center of color bando Solvent front-wetness of
chromatogramo Bands-variation in color
• Excess solvent in tubes-wait ten minutes for notable changes
![Page 24: Observing the Effect of Polarity in the Separation of Pigments](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/5a4d1ad47f8b9ab0599726d4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Conclusionso 3:2 solvent mixture provided the most
effective separation Largest difference in R(f) values Most pigments separated on
chromatogramo Hypothesis is refutedo Relationship between polarity and
chromatographic separation As the ratio of dispersion forces and
dipole-dipole becomes closer, the greater the separation of pigments
![Page 25: Observing the Effect of Polarity in the Separation of Pigments](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070605/5a4d1ad47f8b9ab0599726d4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Future Improvements• Create extract
• More trials
• Producing clearer resultso UV lampo Spectrophotometer o Longer chromatograms

Questions• What are three of the most common
pigments in plants?
• How does the polarity of the pigments determine how far they will travel up the chromatogram?
• By looking at the R(f) values of each pigment, how do you know when effective separation has been achieved?
