Save March 25 paper 6_250510_111634 (1) For Later Inks contain different coloured substances called dyes,
‘student used chromatography to investigate the coloured dyes contained in six different inks.
‘The student drew a baseline on a sheet of chromatography paper.
‘The student then placed a spot of each ink on the chromatography paper and set up the apparatus
as shown in Fig. 1.1
The student made two errors.
