Hi, I'm Zion and welcome back to Zionce. Today we will be doing an old experiment and changing it up a bit. The experiment we are doing today is the oil and water experiment!
 |
You will need the following items for this experiment.
- Corn syrup
- 1/2 a cup of Oil
- Water
- Food coloring (Recommended any color but yellow because of oil )
- An eraser
- And a jar
What to do?
- Dump the water into the jar.
2. Then dump the oil in next. (Observe: Whoa!! Did you see that when you poured the oil in the water the water and oil immediately separated!? This is because the oil is lighter than the water and because of that the oil came out on top.) 
3.Pour the corn syrup in the solution. (Observe: Did you notice how the liquids are in different order. This is because the corn syrup is the heaviest and the oil is the lightest, that leaves the water in the middle.)
4. Now to put the eraser in. (It might seem pointless but, this will do something awesome later.
5. Now you need to drop a few drops of food coloring in. 
6. Finally we watch.
Ezra (Left) and Sedona (Right).
Here is the result.
Do you see how the food coloring is attracted to the eraser? Most people don't know why this happens but there is a certain chemical in the food coloring that can sense it's "enemy and tries to eat it" or in other words, the eraser is the enemy of the food coloring and the food coloring tries to eat it.
BONUS!!! :D
You can also extend this experiment by adding other chemicals or liquids such as vinegar, honey or soap.
