Question

a) How is paper chromatography used
to separate various components of
coloured solutes present in a mixture
like ink, dyes etc.?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The ink that we use has water as the solvent and the dye is soluble in it. As the water rises on the filter paper it takes along with it the dye particles. Usually, a dye is a mixture of two or more colours. The coloured component that is more soluble in water, rises faster and in this way the colours get separated.
