CONCLUSION

In conclusion, thin layer

chromatography is a lab
technique that can identify
components
that are in found in a mixture.
On a TLC plate, there is a
competition between the
stationary
phase, the silica gel, and the
mobile phase, ethyl acetate.
The more polar component
will be held
tightly by the silica gel and
while other elutes up the TLC
plate along with the ethyl
acetate. This
is dependent on polarity and
the components IMF of the
molecules being separated.
Another
component to think about is
the structure of the molecule as
organic molecules can be
water
soluble if they contain at least
one hydrogen binding site and
fewer than six carbons. This
also
goes with the concept with
“like dissolve like.” By
performing the experiment and
calculating
the Rf values, it can visualize
which component makes up
the unknown substance which
can
therefore conclude with OTC
analgesic was identified.

In addition, thin layer chromatography is a laboratory technique for identifying
components in a mixture. The stationary phase, silica gel, and while other elutes up
the TLC plate along with the ethyl acetate compete on the TLC plate. This is
dependent on the molecule's structure, as organic molecules can be water soluble if
they have at least one hydrogen binding site and fewer than six carbons. This is also
related to the concept of "like dissolves like." By carrying out the experiment and
calculating the Rf values, it is possible to see which components make up the
unknown substance.
