This document provides instructions for performing thin layer chromatography to separate plant pigments. The instructions involve extracting pigments from plant leaves using solvents, spotting the extract onto a TLC plate, developing the plate in a solvent, and measuring the distance traveled by each pigment spot relative to the solvent front to calculate Rf values. Students are to record their results in a table with the pigment distance, color, Rf value and possible identity. The purpose is to separate an
