Paper Chromatography is the key separating technique to get the green chlorophyll out of grass. In order to extract the chlorophyll you will need to soak the grass in acetone or concentrated alcohol for awhile. Then paint the grass mixture with the grass onto paper chromatography paper. Do the steps of the paper chromatography procedure and the mixture will separate in layers. these layers will be. Carotene on the top, then Xanthophyll

and Two different layers of Chlorophyll on the bottom.
