The use of silica gel can be interpreted in two ways. It well know that silica (SiO2) can adsorb water on its surface. If you use silica dryed under 400 °C, the process of adsorption occurs by the silanol group. So, molecules with a polar groups like hydroxil, amine, nitrilic ... can make chemical interactions with the silica surface and can be retained more time into a column. In this case the adsorption is chemical. But, if you use a deactived silica (~5% H2O), the H2O molecules make a layer into a silica surface and the main process occurs by partition chromatography.
Gas chromatography is a technique used to separate and analyze components in a gas sample. It works by passing the gas sample through a column where the different components are separated based on their interactions with the column material. Detection of hydrogen in gas chromatography is typically done using a thermal conductivity detector, which is sensitive to changes in thermal conductivity caused by the presence of different gas components.
High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) works by pumping a liquid sample through a column packed with tiny particles. These particles have different affinities for the components of the sample, causing them to separate as they pass through the column. The separated components are then detected by a detector, which produces a chromatogram. HPLC is commonly used in analytical chemistry to separate and quantify compounds in a mixture.
Chromatography works to separate particles of ink by exploiting differences in solubility between the ink components and the mobile phase (solvent). As the mobile phase moves through the stationary phase (usually a paper or column), it carries the ink components at different rates based on their solubility. This differential movement results in separation of the ink particles into distinct bands or spots on the chromatography paper.
When a solvent diffuses, it 'drags' whatever is dissolved in it along with it. The further it d\e same, the different dissolved materials sort out as different stripes or peaks and the banding can t\tography
Molecular exclusion chromatography is a type of size exclusion chromatography that separates molecules based on their size and shape. It works by passing a sample mixture through a porous stationary phase, where smaller molecules are able to enter the pores and take longer to elute, while larger molecules pass more easily through the column and elute faster. This technique is commonly used for separating proteins and nucleic acids.
The separation in Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) is primarily influenced by the differing affinities of the compounds for the stationary phase (silica gel) and the mobile phase (solvent). Compounds with higher affinity for the stationary phase will move more slowly, leading to separation based on their relative polarities.
As a very crude analogy, think of a playground slide with dents in it that are the size and shape of a left shoe print. If we put some shoes at the top and let them slide down, the left shoes will be more likely to get stuck in the dents than the right shoes (which don't fit as well and therefore slide over them more easily).

As far as I'm aware, suppressor columns are primarily used in ion chromatography just. They remove strong ions (ie replace Na+ with H+) allowing for a decrease in background detection (due to the eluent). A link is provided to the process that goes on in a suppressor for IC made by metrohm

A fine-point Sharpie marker or a specialized chromatography pen is recommended for chromatography. These pens have fast-drying ink that adheres well to the chromatography paper and produce clean, sharp lines that are easy to analyze. Always check with the specific manufacturer of the chromatography paper for compatible writing instruments.
Some possible alternatives for paper chromatography include thin-layer chromatography (TLC), gas chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and capillary electrophoresis. These techniques offer different separation mechanisms and have varying applications depending on the analyte and desired outcome.
Principle:GC, MS is a technique perform sample identification and quantification according to mass and charge (m/z) and works on the principle that a mixture will separate into individual substances when heated.
A fine-tipped marker or pen works best for chromatography as it can produce clear and precise lines on the paper, allowing for accurate separation of the pigments. It is important to use a water-soluble ink that will dissolve in the solvent used for the chromatography process.
