last week we used leaves and that experiment failed due to many possible problems like amount of pigmentation etc we used leaves as the solute and ethanol as the solvent
this week we have used water soluble markers as the solute and used the water as the solvent
the cause of the pigments to separate is because the different pigments have different weights so some can move faster than others with the same amount of force being applied to said pigments therefore separation of the colours because they are being moved with the same force but different weights
here is an image of our results
