On Thin Layer Chromatography of n-Hexane and Ethyl Acetate Using
Thin Layer Chromatography, the method of precipitates is also. Among them, n-hexane and ethyl acetate are important in the precipitates. N-hexane is non-polar in nature and dissolves non-polar substances. Ethyl acetate has both polar and non-polar properties.

The combination of the two can adjust the polarity of the extender. If the polarity of the precipitates is different, n-hexane and ethyl acetate should be mixed in a different proportion. If the polarity is weak, the proportion of n-hexane should be more and the development rate can be fast; if the polarity is strong, the proportion of ethyl acetate needs to be increased to make the substance shift on the

In thin layer chromatography, adjust the ratio of n-hexane to ethyl acetate, lay the plate, spot, spread the layer, observe the spot, and separate the pure and heterogeneous compounds. With its ratio adjustment, the optimum analytical effect is obtained, which is widely used in chemical and pharmaceutical fields.
