Run the mixture on the TLC plate. Find the different colored pigments. Scrape each spot and elute the pigments.
No. A TLC (Thin Liquid Chromatagraphy) plate is made specially. It has different Compounds to it that make it separate from filter paper. See 1st related link below for more info on TLC Plates See 2nd related link for info about filter paper
Many organic compounds are aromatic and thus absorb ultraviolet light. Simply shine UV over your TLC plate and observe the spots. If the compound isn't UV absorbing but has a double bond, a solution of KMnO4 can be used to visibly stain the compound on the TLC plate.
The staining of a TLC plate with iodine vapor is among the oldest methods for the visualization of organic compounds. It is based upon the observation that iodine has a high affinity for both unsaturated and aromatic compounds. Preparation: A chamber may be assembled as follows: To 100 mL wide mouth jar (with cap) is added a piece of filter paper and few crystals of iodine. Iodine has a high vapor pressure for a solid and the chamber will rapidly become saturated with iodine vapor. Insert your TLC plate and allow it to remain within the chamber until it develops a light brown color over the entire plate. Commonly, if your compound has an affinity for iodine, it will appear as a dark brown spot on a lighter brown background. Carefully remove the TLC plate at this point and gently circle the spots with a dull pencil. The iodine will not remain on the TLC plate for long periods of time so circling these spots is necessary if one wishes to refer to these TLC's at a later date.
Barbituric acid looks like its very polar... it should be soluble in water and acetone, at least.Visualizing it on a TLC plate is problematic because the compound is not aromatic and thus does not absorb UV. The easiest way to visualize non-UV absorbing compounds on a TLC plate is using an iodine development chamber. In a jar, mix some powdered iodine (I2) crystals* and dry silica gel. Throw in the TLC plate (after running in the appropriate solvent system), shake it a bit, and use forceps to fish it out. The iodine should oxidize the compound on the plate and it should appear as a brown dot. The iodine development chamber can be used pretty much indefinitely. Hope this helps!Do all steps in the fume hood... pure iodine is toxic.
The solvent front is the line at where the solvent moves up the TLC plate. Its migration can be measured by taking the R value of the TLC plate.
The spots on the TLC plate should be placed about a cm from the bottom of the plate. Then solvent should then fall about half-way between these spots and the bottom of the beaker.

You have to be speaking Bangalian,Indian or a good Spanish.
Tailing effect is an error that occurs when the spot is not allowed to dry hence leading increased diameter of the spot in a TLC plate. Nwando Ata.
Applying too much compound to the TLC plate makes it difficult for a good separation to occur. Instead, a large blot of solution tends to appear in the TLC. "It is extremely important that the spots be as small as possible and that they be applied using a 1% solution of the compounds being separated
it doesn't depends upon the TLC plates.. as it depends upon the solvents in which these compounds migrate.
the marks will run as the inks will generally be soluble in the solvent used to develop the plate.
TLC= In it finely solid is spread on a rigid supporting plate (stationary phase)and the mobile phase is allowed to migrate across the surface of plate by capillary action. Less efficient then HPLCHPLC= in it column are used on place of plates and the mode of separation is adsorption or partition coefficient
