Depends what the food colouring base is - any water based food colouring will not mix with the oil. Similarly, alcohol based food colourings. Oil based food colourings will mix just fine. Nothing spectacular happens, you just achieve coloured oil.

Why does food colouring go through oil?

Food coloring spreads in water but not oil because the molecules that make up the coloring are soluble (able to be dissolved) in water. Water molecules are polar, which means they have an unequal distribution of charge on them. They are like little magnets, with a positive side and a negative side. Other particles with charge will be attracted to these little magnets, resulting in the material dissolving in water. The food coloring dissolves in water because its particles spread out amidst the water molecules due to this attraction. Oil is a non-polar substance, which means that its particles have no charge. Other non-polar materials will dissolve in oil, but a polar substance will not. Hence the separation of oil and water when they are mixed together. Oil is also thicker then water

What is some research on a homemade lava lamp?

I made one of these a few years years ago for my sixth grade science class. It is pretty easy. Here is what you need. Ingredients 1.Small water bottle (empty) 2.Olive oil 3.Food coloring 4.water First you mix the water and food coloring together (until you get desired color) Then u put the oil in the empty water bottle, add the food coloring and water to the conquotion the tighten the cap and shake. The reason the oil doesn't mix with the water is because the density of the liquids is far to different to combine and or to mix. You should try it, it's cool fun and interesting.
