No, wax paper is hydrophobic, it should not be able to
Adding soap to water when it is on wax paper will cause it to separate. This will make it bubble up.
Water doesn't stick to wax because there is no adhesion meaning the molecules don't stick to the wax, but they stick to each other, also known as hydrogen bonding. This causes the water to bead up and take up the least surface space it can. They are attracted to groups on a hydrophilic surface (water-loving) such as glass.
Chromatography You will need: Non- Waterproof markers like a white board marker (Preferably black) A Beaker with around 50mls of water Cello-tape Shreds of paper towel around the same width Method: Get your paper towel shreds, Put a line of marker pen across the paper towel at roughly the same height. Cello-tape the top of the paper towel to the beaker, Remembering which pen is which. Wait for the water to travel up the paper towel. The ink will seperate Vivid's don't work because their waterproof FAT markers from smiggle work really well!! Thanks, Tess Year 8
A paper towel holds 2 pounds and 5 ounces of water.
Water travels up filter paper through a process called capillary action, where water molecules are attracted to the cellulose fibers in the paper. This attraction allows water to move against gravity and spread through the pores in the paper, ultimately ascending to higher levels.
Some substances will travel further up the paper in chromatography because they are more attracted to the mobile phase (solvent) and less attracted to the stationary phase (paper). This results in them moving faster and traveling a greater distance up the paper.
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.
Substances travel further up the paper in chromatography due to differences in their affinity to the mobile phase (solvent) and the stationary phase (paper). Substances that have higher affinity for the solvent will move faster and farther up the paper, while those with higher affinity for the stationary phase will travel slower and remain closer to the origin.

The adhesion property of water and diffusion allows water to travel upwards, but xylems are the "pipes" that carry that water up and throughout the plant.
Yes, because methylated spirits have a lower surface tension and viscosity compared to water, they are likely to travel through filter paper faster due to their ability to penetrate and absorb more easily.
It depend on the density of the pigments.
The type of paper that doesn't soak up water and lets it slide through is called water-resistant paper or waterproof paper. It is often coated or treated to repel water, making it suitable for use in wet environments or for outdoor activities.
Absorption.
It is pushed by the water pressure in the system.
It can travel through things like: Water Wood Metal Hole (like in card board paper)
