the shell dissolves leaving you with white gummy skittles
Dissolving Skittles in salt and water is a physical change. The Skittles are still the same chemical compounds, but they are now dispersed throughout the water-salt solution.
Water dissolves Skittles faster than spirits because water is a polar solvent that interacts more effectively with the sugars and food coloring in Skittles. The high alcohol content in spirits creates a less favorable environment for dissolving the soluble components of the candy, resulting in a slower dissolution process. Additionally, the sugar content in Skittles is more compatible with water, enhancing its dissolving capability.
Skittles dissolve in Sprite due to a process called osmosis. The sugar and other compounds in the Skittles create a high concentration solution, while the Sprite is a low concentration solution. This concentration gradient causes the water molecules in the Sprite to move into the Skittles, breaking down the sugar and other compounds, ultimately dissolving the Skittles in the liquid.
Skittles are considered a suspension rather than a solution. In a suspension, solid particles are dispersed throughout a liquid but do not dissolve, which is the case with Skittles when they are placed in water; the sugar and color from the candy can leach out, but the solid candy remains intact. In contrast, a solution involves a solute fully dissolving in a solvent, creating a homogeneous mixture. Therefore, Skittles do not form a true solution.

Dissolving in water is a physical change.
The independent variable was the amount of skittles or M&Ms. One of our controlled variables was the amount of water.
