Colourful Chemistry

In this activity the children will be introduced to science sorting and the primary and secondary colours. Having mixed 2 primary colours - say blue and yellow would it be possible to separate them again? Through investigating the properties of water and the the concept of chromatography the children will investigate markers to establish when they were making colours such as green and brown which inks dod the factory use.

The children from 3rd - 6th class will find out what chemistry is, the sort of things that chemists are interested in and how chemists apply their knowledge to find out interesting things. Using chromatography, the food colourings used by different sweet manufacturers will be investigated. 
Flame testing as a means of identifying different metals will be demonstrated as will other light producing chemical reactions.
