Chromatography is a method used to separate mixture that comprises solutes that dissolve in the same solvent.This method gets its name from the Greek word for colour —Kroma, as it was first used for separating colours.
Principle: Chromatography is based on differential affinities of compounds towards two phases, i.e stationary and mobile phase.
The fraction with greater affinity towards stationary phase travels shorter distance while the fraction with less affinity towards stationary phase travels longer distance.
Chromatography is used for separating colors in a dye, pigments from natural colors and drugs from blood.
