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?
Draw a chromatogram showing the spots when a mixture of the following compounds is separated using water-acetone as the mobile phase in a cellulose-based stationary phase. The following compounds have Rf values of 0.8, 0.6,0.3.
A mixture of seven amino acids (glycine, glutamate, leucine, lysine, alanine, isoleucine, and aspartate) is separated by chromatography. Explain why only six spots show up when the chromatographic plate is coated with ninhydrin and heated.

- 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.
