Chromatography Butterflies
Let’s make some beautiful butterflies! Chromatography is the process of separating a mixture of components into their parts. This is best illustrated by markers, which use a combination of many pigments to create smooth colors. Dipping a filter marked with the ink in water will spread the colors into wondrous patterns. Chromatography is used in many labs to find out what mystery substances are. Use this technique to make some unique patterns in your butterfly wings!
