Skittles

 Skittles

Chromatography is a technique for the separation of a mixture by passing it in solution or suspension through a medium which the components move at different rates.

Aim: to separate the colours from the skittles by using chromatography 

Martials:

1. 5 Skittles 

2. Water

3. Petri dish

4. Beaker

Process: 

Step 1: Get your equipment set up ready to pour 25mls of water into the petri dish with the skittles.

Step 2: Place the skittles into the petri dish around the edges.

Step 4: watch as the water removes the dye from the skittles. See which  colour reaches middles fastest.

Step 5: Record your results on the tables below.  (forgot to take a photo sorry)
