Chromatography & Spectroscopy
To request field trip dates, visit https://oepreg.bnl.gov/.
Chromatography and spectroscopy are key techniques in analytical chemistry, widely used to separate and identify chemical substances in fields like medicine, materials science, and pharmaceuticals. In this session, students will use specialized lab equipment to separate food dyes through chromatography. They will then analyze their results by measuring the absorbance of each dye using a spectrophotometer, allowing them to quantify the effectiveness of their separation.
Vocabulary: atom, molecule, electric forces, eluent, load, chromatography, spectroscopy, cartridge, syringe, cuvette
