Pen chromatography!
(All grade levels)
Create fun designs and watch the science happen right in front of your eyes!
It is quick, simple and fun!
Materials:
Paper towel or coffee filter paper
Sharpies or Markers (black looks really cool!) (felt tip pens work great)
Water
A Glass
Steps:
Cut the filter paper or paper towels into thin 1 inch strips
Draw a line about 1/2 inch with the marker above the bottom of the strip
Carefully place the strip of paper into a cup slightly filled with water just so that the bottom of the strip touches the water
Make sure to not place the whole strip in water
Watch the colors separate and the magic happen!
