Color change Chemical reaction help

AI Thread Summary
For a project requiring a color change through a chemical reaction using two powders, turmeric and methylene blue are recommended. When mixed, turmeric's yellow color combines with methylene blue's hue to create green, providing a visually interesting result. Both chemicals are non-toxic and relatively inexpensive, making them suitable for the project. The reaction does not require heat, aligning with the project’s requirements. This combination offers an effective solution for demonstrating a color change in a safe manner.

I am working on a project that needs 2 chemicals to react and change colors. The catch is they most likely need to be or come in a powder form, non toxic, and relatively inexpensive.

PLEASE HELP!

To clarify: you want to mix two powders and observe color change?
 
yes, that is correct
 
...without heat
 
Try tumeric and methylene blue. Mix the yellow powder with the blue one and it turns green! How cool is that?
 

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...

Thread 'How to find the pH of a galvanic cell (MIT OCW problem set)'

This is the final problem in this problem set from MIT OCW. Here is what I did to try to solve it The table cited in the problem is below We can easily spot the two redox couples that are in the electrochemical cell we are given. The hydrogen-based electrode has standard potential zero, and the silver-based electrode has standard potential 0.22. Thus, the hydrogen electrode, with the lower potential, is the reducing agent (ie, it is where oxidation happens) and is the anode. Electrons...
