I found this experiment on permanent markers and I will be cutting out paper strips, and I have to draw a small dot near the bottom of the strip using the permanent marker and then hang it into a jar of 'solvent' (water, vinegar, nail polish remover.. etc) and my teacher said something about looking for the colors of the 'dot' rising up? what is the aim of this experiment? what is it investigating? T_T and what kind of markers should i be using? 3 markers of the same brand but different color? i'm really lost...
