the more soluble the pigment the further it moves. in this experiment the pigments in green leaves dissolve in a solvent ( s1). the solvent moves up the paper carrying the pigments different distances. you should use the safety equipment provided while you are carrying out the practical work. step 1 use a ruler to draw a pencil line across the strip of chromatography paper 3 cm from one
