Pour some water in the dinner plate and place a coin in it. Fix a candle piece to the cork and place it above the water level in the plate. Light the candle with a match stick and invert a glass tumbler on it carefully.The candle continues to burn with the dull flame and after sometime it is extinguished. The waterfrom the plate rushes inside the tumbler leaving the coin behind. The coin can be picked with hand and shown to the audience.

Methylene blue indicator is blue in the oxidized form and colourless in the reduced form. It is reduced to the colourless methylene white by alkaline glucose. Shaking the flask dissolves oxygen in the flask and the dye is oxidized back to the blue form.

Place 25ml of carbon tetrachloride in the measuring jar. Add 2-3 crystals of iodine and shake to get a pink colour. Ask the audience what is the resulting colour when pink is mixed with blue. Pour copper sulphate solution into the jar and show the distinct pink and blue layers. Slowly introduce benzene into jar and exhibit the third seperate colourless upper layer. Using a glass rod try to mix the solutions by stirring. The layers remain as they are. Now closing the mouth of the jar with your palm give a vigorous shaking to the jar.Allow the solutions to settle. Exhibit only two layers-pink and blue.<br>

Copper sulphate solution is immiscible with carbon tetrachloride and the two form seperate layers. Similarly benzene and copper sulphate are immiscible;benzene being lighter forms the upper layer.on vigorous shaking benzene dissolves in carbon tetrachloride and the colourless layer dissappers.<br>
