Thin Layer Chromatography of Leaf Pigments AP Chemistry Kit

The Innovating Science Thin Layer Chromatography AP Chemistry Kit introduces students to adsorption chromatography using silica gel sheets and organic solvents. Students extract pigments from plant leaves—or use provided red and green leaf extracts—and separate them on chromatography sheets to observe how different compounds migrate based on selective adsorption. This hands-on kit reinforces key concepts in separation techniques and analytical chemistry, making it well suited for AP Chemistry courses and advanced laboratory instruction.
