    The document summarizes a milk lab experiment where different colored dyes were added to milk and observed. A mysterious solution was also added which caused the dyes to mix with the water in the milk but not the other components like sugar and fat. The scientific explanation is that the mysterious solution was a detergent, as detergents change the polarity of water allowing it to mix with stains, which is what happened with the dye mixing with the water in milk but not the other parts.

    Milk Lab

    OBSERVATIONS BEFORE PUTTING THE MYSTERIOUS SOLUTION

    Red Turned out to be red-violet color in milk


    Yellow Turned out to be orange when dissolved in
    milk
    Green Turned out to be dark and spread out more
    Blue Turned out to be dark and spread out more

    OBSERVATION AFTER PUTTING THE MYSTERIOUS SOLUTION

    It continuously repelled from the color dye and did not mix with any of the milk or nor

    with the color. The ink suddenly mixed with the water content in the milk but solution did not

    mix to any liquid whatsoever.

    SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION

    The mysterious solution was clearly a detergent, because a detergent or soap’s job is to

    make the water mix with the stain and remove it (In other words it changed the polarity of

    water). That was happening with the milk and the coloring. The coloring mixed with the water

    content of the milk while the sugar, fat, other chemical contents were not mixed in. So the

    detergent changed the polarity of water to mix with the stains.
