TWO COLOURLESS FLUIDS MAKE A COLOURED ONE.

Put into a wine-glass of water, a few drops of prussiate of potash; and

into a second glass of water, a little weak solution of sulphate of

iron in water: pour the colourless mixtures together into a tumbler,

and they will be immediately changed to a bright deep blue colour.

Or, mix the solution of prussiate of potash with that of nitrate of

bismuth, and a yellow will be the product.

Or, mix the solution of prussiate of potash with that of sulphate of

copper, and the mixture will be of a reddish brown colour.
