Materials

1 glass cup
Coloring
Water

Tip: Throw the dye when the water is at rest, so you can see the movement much better.

How the restless molecule is formed, step by step

1. Take a glass of water and fill it with water.

2. Add some dye to mix with the water.

3. Observe how the dye does not stop moving. It is the water molecules that push it to dilute it.

Water molecules are always in motion, although they are very small and we can not see them. Therefore, if we cast dye we can see this movement, since the molecules hit it and move it until it is completely diluted.
