Summary
Chromatography is a technique used to separate mixtures into their components using a mobile phase and stationary phase. Paper chromatography is the simplest form, where a solvent moves up paper, separating dyes based on polarity. Other types include thin-layer, column, size-exchange, ion-exchange, affinity, high-performance liquid, and gas chromatography, each with unique applications.
