Chromatography - Science

Aim: To Separate the different pigments from ink using Chromatography

Hypothesis: What I think would happen once my colours are blending together, the outcome will straight away form into a darker colour.

Equipment: Felt Tip Pen, Filter Paper Strips, Test Tube, Measuring Cylinder, Pencil.

Method:

1. Draw a line across the filter paper in pencil, 5cm from the bottom.
2. Draw a coloured dot in the centre of the line.
3. Measure out 10mL of water and place in the test tube.
4. Place in the filter paper in the test tube and fold over the side. Make sure the pencil line is not in the water.
5. Wait for 5 minutes and observe the results.



Observation: The results of the two colours blending together, it came to be successful. The black didn't stay as its colour it changed into multiple colours such as pink, light blue, orange, yellow, etc. My other colour which was dark blue actually went into a light blue instead of getting dark.

Conclusion: No my hypothesis wasn't right.
