Answer 1

Answer:

Ninety-percent acetone has been widely used for the extraction of chlorophylls from algae, gymnosperms, and angiosperms (2, 3, 4). Arnon's (3) chlorophyll- extraction method involves grinding the plant tis- sue in 90% acetone with subsequent centrifugation to remove solid plant material.
