Narrative:

After being cleared for the visual; runway 36R approach into charlotte; I continued to descend on final for the runway as normal. While continuing the approach; another aircraft was cleared for takeoff on runway 36R. Initially; it appeared as though we had ample spacing to continue our approach to land so we continued. However; the aircraft on the runway took longer than expected to lift off. After descending through 200 ft. Afe; my captain and I vocalized our concerns about spacing. Before descending through 100 ft. Afe; we noticed the aircraft on the runway still had not lifted off so we executed a go-around. We came back around for another attempt and landed without incident.
