How do you use chromatography of Skittles?

Answer 1

i think that you have to crush the skittles first (so that you can hardly see them) then filter the substance in then do the chromatography process. sorry if this isn't much help an it might be wrong so you will have to check i am at secondary school and throughout all of my years of being at school i never got taught if you can use chromatography on solids... oh well... why don't you try differant ways yourself i may answer your question

Answer 2

I f you want to observe this theory in simple way ,you can observe it through using filter paper has ink on it and leave it in water ,after time when the water get evaporated you will observe that the ink was separated and this is a simple chromatography. And this is core concept for chromatography.

To perform chromatography on Skittles, you can use a coffee filter or chromatography paper. Start by placing a Skittle in a small amount of water or rubbing alcohol to create a liquid extract. Then, using the paper as a strip, place a drop of the extract at the bottom and watch as the colors separate and move up the paper to reveal the dyes used in the Skittle.
