When I did this i noticed that when you put the soap on the q-tip into the milk the milk spread away from it I did not expect this I thought the food colouring would go towards the q-tip. It made a really big circle around the q-tip and it started to swirl. and when you took the q-tip away it sometimes went kind of skinny. I learnt this happens because when you put in the soap it makes the fat molecules split up and the soap wants to attach to the fat molecules, this would normally be invisible to us but the food colouring helps us see what is happening.
I hope you do this experiment.
If you do what do you think was the coolest bit about it?
Hi Kate.
ReplyDeleteI found your blog very interesting. You have explained it really well and the picture makes it look fun. I'm going to try this myself to see if it works for me. Do you enjoy science?
