use a blue light instead of black light
Leave it in for an hour. Squeezing it will definitely help. It won't really be glow in the dark unless it's a glow in the dark highlighter, but it will fluoresce under a blacklight
Blacklight activated water is made with highlighter pigment and water...of course this may not be the answer you are looking for
you cut the highlighter in half and take out the felt tip and you put it in a small amount of water. After you put the felt tip in a small ,amount of water you put it under a black light and the water should glow. The best color to use is a yellow highlighter.
AnswerSimple, you grab a bowl fill it half way with water crack open a highlighter (prefer yellow) squeeze the ink out of the highlighter into the bowl of water and turn on your black light and you have glow in the dark water.(:
This is a cool experiment for my fourth grader but she also needs to understand why the liquid glows.
There are three chemicals used to make this one called the omnihil another glomji and the last hingti. They make glow if there is a source of light.
Put radium in it. Just kidding please don't put radium in it, as it's radioactive and causes cancer. I would suggest putting glow-sticks or anything glow-in-the-dark in it that's safe to put in water. I've also heard of squeezing hi-lighter ink into the water
you dont
well i just watched something about it but you can watch video its kinda hard explain so here is the link http://video.about.com/chemistry/How-to-Make-Glowing-Water.htm
a good hypothesis for glow in the dark water is how to make it
without using any radioactive materials , you can use tonic water in a jello recipe that will make it glow under black light that all i know :/
yes
