The color decomposition to understand primary and secondary colors.
The primary colors are cyan, yellow, and magenta. Three shades from which all the others are derived. One way of discovering the color of the markers is to play with water, a coffee filter, and to use the principle of capillarity.
Gather all the requested materials
Choose different colors. Ideally, colors that are not blue, red and yellow.
With a felt-tip pen, draw a line at 0.6 in from the edge.
In a glass jar, add water to a height of 0.2 in.
Insert the coffee filter so that the bottom of the filter is in water.
Now watch what’s going on. The color rises in the filter washed away by the water.
Over time, other colors appear. The different colors that make up that of the felt develop on the filter.
The ink in the felt-tip pen climbs into the coffee filter due to the capillary effect. As soon as the water meets the felt-tip ink, it takes the ink with it. The capillary effect is a force that opposes gravity thanks to the presence of a very narrow tube. This allows the colors to break down.
Primary and secondary colors ?
These are colors that cannot be obtained with mixtures. There are three primary colors: yellow, magenta, and cyan. With these, we create secondary colors. For example, mixing blue and yellow gives green.
Test the color decomposition of black, brown, gray shades, and observe!
Does water always mix with water? You might be tempted to say yes. But the truth is that certain parameters such as temperature and gravity can prevent two solutions of the same nature from mixing. With this experiment, you will understand everything! […]
Observing a chemical reaction in your kitchen is possible with the volcano science experiment. Build your volcano with sand. And then let’s move on to making lava. […]
Adding food coloring to milk is nothing very exciting, except the beauty of the colors that spread on the surface of the milk. But if you use one additional ingredient, you will observe an explosion of colors in the milk. The colors mix and turn on themselves as if by magic. This magic milk experience will allow you to observe the movement of molecules and to understand that milk is a mixture of many things. […]
