Skittles

Skittles

Aim: To separate colours from skittles by using the chromatography.

Materials;

1. Petri Dish
2. Skittles
3. Water

Process:

Step 1: Place the skittles in the Petri Dish
Step 2: Pour the water into the dish.
Step 3: Watch the water change color!


Conclusion: 
Today in science we tried the 'Skittle Experiment' where we put skittles into a clear container and the color of the skittles dissolve in the water. It didn't take much time for the colors to dissolve into the water.

The color from the skittles disolves into the water and spreads through the water. 
The 'S' in the skittle floated to the top of the water. I also learnt that Skittles taste weird when soaked in water.
