The process is called chromatography. The property is the attraction of pigments to a liquid or solution (such as water) and its ability to dissolve in the solution. In paper chromatography, a pigment that dissolves easily in water will travel farther up the paper as opposed to an oil, that does not dissolve in water.

What colours could have no effect in the process of chromatography?
This question is not very precise, but I assume you mean which colours will not be separated by chromatography. It is not a property of the colour, but of the substance you are trying to split up. Chromatography only works if the substance is soluble in the liquid you are using to run the chromatogram.
