2. Marked a dot in the center of the filter paper with the black marker. • Filled the cup with water. Procedures
3. Drew a circle of black dots around the dot in the middle of the paper. 4. Cut a piece of pipe cleaner in half with the scissors.
5. Pushed the pipe cleaner into the center of the filter paper where the center dot was marked. • 6. Carefully placed the filter paper and pipe cleaner on top of the plastic cup.
7. Let the water rise up the pipe cleaner to the paper filter and observed what happened.
Observations/Data • The pipe cleaner got wet. • The water spread out when it reached the filter paper. • The ink spread when the water reached the black dots • Different colors appeared. • We saw pink, purple, yellow, light blue and dark blue, orange, dark green, and a little bit of red.
