Chromatography! A Colorful Science Experiment
Jun 15th, 2007 • Category: Science & the Environment
Did you know that many of the colors in markers are actually mixtures of other colors? You can separate these mixtures by using a process called chromatography. All you need is a coffee filter and a colored marker (black and brown work best).
1. Take your coffee filter and cut a strip about 1/2 inch wide.
2. Put a dot of colored marker 1/2 inch from one end.
3. Lower this edge into water so that the paper touches the water but the dot is above water.
4. Wait (patiently!). The water will climb up the paper and separate the ink into the colors that make it up.

I have observed that over the course of creating a relationship with real estate proprietors, you’ll be able to get them to understand that, in every real estate deal, a commission rate is paid. Ultimately, FSBO sellers never “save” the commission payment. Rather, they fight to earn the commission by doing the agent’s task. In accomplishing this, they shell out their money as well as time to accomplish, as best they could, the tasks of an representative. Those assignments include revealing the home by marketing, representing the home to willing buyers, building a sense of buyer emergency in order to make prompt an offer, preparing home inspections, controlling qualification investigations with the bank, supervising maintenance, and assisting the closing of the deal.
