Procedure
.the first step of the method is to cut the coffee filter into a rectangle measuring three cm by nine cm, then repeat creating two strips. by using a pencil, i drew a line one cm (1/2 inch) from the edge of one end of one strip of paper dot the strip 4 times with a pencil and each dot with a diffrent color alo g the 0.5cm line, 1/4 inches apart. by using the marker, u will then mark each dot with a diffrent colored marker on the paper strips. wait for a moment and let it dry, then i went and go back to apply more colors on the dots. before doing the experiment i made preditions, educated guesses on the pigment componets i expect to seefrom each marker's ink. mix a 1/8 tablespoon salt solution and three cups of water in a 2- liter bottle. hake the solution, producing a 1% salt solution.
Pour the salt solution into a clean tall glass so that the liquid level is 1/4 inch (0.5 cm).
Tape the strip to a pencil and rest the pencil on top of the jar colored spots are not suppose to come in direct contact with the liquid in the bottom of the glass
When the salt water is 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) from the top edge of the paper, remove it from the
