Do you know - Colours are made up of many colours? Do you want to see colours present in colours like- Black, blue etc? Then follow the experiment given below!!


Materials:
A blotting paper
A pencil
Water-based, dark coloured felt tip pens, like:- black, blue etc
A toothpick
Water
Paper
A wide mouth drinking glass or bowl
Scissors

Instructions
Cut the blotting paper in strips. 2.5cm wide and 12.5cm long. One strip to test one colour.

Fill the bowl with water.

With the felt tip pens make a 1.3cm dot on the strips bottom.

Put the end of the strip with the dot in the water and hold the strip with the other end. Remove the strip from the water when the water has reached the end you are holding. Tape the tested strip on a sheet of paper and allow it to dry.
When the strip dries observe the different colours. Those are the colours that made up the colour you had tested!!!
