Column chromatography is a versatile purification method used to separate compounds in a solution. A solution mixture is carried by a solvent through a column containing an adsorbent solid, called the stationary phase. The combined solvent and sample mixture is called the mobile phase.
Molecules in the mobile phase travel through the colum...
