Skittle Colours Experiment

 Aim:

I want to find out what happens when you mix Skittle colours 

Method:

Equipment

  • Skittles
  • Petri Dish 
  • Warm Water
  • Becker
  • White Background
Instructions
  1. Get your equipment 
  2. Place your Petri dish on the White Background
  3. Put your Skittles around the inside edge of the Petri dish
  4. Gently, Pour warm water into the middle of the Petri dish
  5. Observe what happens.
Prediction:

I think all the colours will spread and the Skittles colour will fade


I was kinda right the Skittles Colour kinda faded, When the Colours touched they didn't mix 


Discussion:

  1. The Colours Dissolved (When a solid is mixed into a liquid, creating a solution
     2,Why do Colours Move? (Skittles and coated in sugar and food colouring and each Skittle has a sightly  different chemical made up which so when it dissolved spreading through the water, then the sugar dissolve into the warm water.)
