Chromatogram Experiment

For this lab, you need a clear plastic cup, coffee filters, scissors, wooden stick or pencil, tape, water and washable markers.

[A cup with a pencil laying on the rim of cup horizontally.] Cut a 1 to 2-inch wide strip from the center of each coffee filter, and attach it to the wooden stick or pencil. Place the filter strip in the cup so the craft stick lies across the top of the cup.

[Black marker] Fill the cup with about half an inch of water. Trim the bottom of the strip so it just touches the bottom of the cup. Remove the filter strip from the cup. Choose a marker and draw a line across the strip about 2 inches from the bottom.

[Colors appear on paper strip.] Allow the water to begin to move up the coffee filter. Record your observations Remove the strip from the cup and let it dry.

Now we will repeat the process using a new filter strip and a different marker. Record your observation on this marker’s result

Continue until all markers have been tested.
