🌈 P2 Rainbow experiment

16th Apr 2021

The Science Behind this Rainbow Science Experiment

Skittles are coated with sugar and food coloring. When you add warm water to the Skittles, the sugar and food coloring start to dissolve. They have similar amounts coated on them so they dissolve at similar speeds and stay in their lanes.
