Question
Chapter 17.5, Problem 10P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The showing off six spots in the separation of mixture of seven amino acids by chromatography should be explained.
Concept introduction:
Ninhydrin forms colored imine product when reacted with an amino acid.
The mixture of amino acids can be separated by chromatography on the basis of their difference in polarities.
Chromatography is technique to separate mixture of compounds by using a stationary phase and a mobile phase, in which mobile phase carry the compounds one by one on the basis of their polarities.

Explain how we would run a paper chromatography on an amino acid sample (explain the procedure or method). In a paper chromatography of an amino acid, the solvent front traveled 12.0 cm while the amino acid traveled 6.0 cm. What is Rf value of the amino acid?
Propose a step-by-step procedure to separate the amino acids glycine and tyrosine mixture using Thin Layer Chromatography.
Include materials and chemicals required.
In a chromatographic analysis, it was found out that distance travelled by the alcohol solvent is 4 cm away from the finish line. The distance travelled from the starting line to finish line is 40 cm. The first amino acid, AA1 travelled 6 cm behind the distance travelled by the alcohol. The second amino acid, AA2 travelled 12 cm short from the solvent front while the third amino acid, AA3 travelled 8 cm ahead of AA2. Calculate: Rf of AA1 ____ Rf of AA2____ Rf of AA3____ (Rf= Retention factor)
