Cool colors

Students will understand how warm or cool colors aid in portraying a specific subject (all levels). 

Look through magazines and cut out examples of pictures in warm colors and pictures in cool colors. 

Find advertising pictures that relate to chemistry, for example, fluoride toothpaste ads, pH balanced shampoo ads, vitamin supplement ads. In the advertising pictures, discuss the use of warm and cool colors to convey a message to a buyer. 

Find a variety of pictures in magazines to express your theme, cut them out, and arrange them into a composition, making effective use of warm and cool colors and the elements of design to best describe the theme. 

Choose a word from the list made in Activity 1.2 and create a composition on 12-x-18-in. paper interpreting the word in either warm or cool colors, using the elements of design. The picture can be realistic or nonobjective. 

Warm and Cool Colors. Warm colors are red-violet, red, red-orange, orange, yellow-orange, and yellow. Cool colors are yellow-green, green, blue-green, blue, and blue-violet. 

If you must dry toned prints with heat use the lowest and coolest setting. Heat drying may cause a cool color shift in toned prints. You can often compensate by using a more dilute solution of toner and/or toning the prints to a warmer color. 

But the notion of adequacy is in a sense broader than that. Adequate conceptual schemes get us something more than truths. Let us see an example. The Danis of New Guinea have only two basic color terms, mili and mola . The former stands for dark, cool colors (e.g. black, blue and green), the latter stands for light, warm... 

Examples of color schemes cool colors (blues and greens), pastel colors, subdued color with intense color accents, or intense colors.

Remove solution from pan and allow to cool. Color of solution will change from blue to light green. Filter solution through a paper towel into another wide mouth bottle. Store solution until ready for step 6. 

Procedure A few milliUters of the reagent are mixed with an equal amoxmt of an aqueous or slightly acidified sample solution with acetic acid (free of ammonium salts), and the mixture is heated to boiling and then allowed to cool. Colors appear, depending on the type of amine present (see above). 

Figure 36 Illustrative model of a growing particle of a pigment crystal. Hot colored faces are fast growing, cool colored faces are slow growing. Modeling can be used to understand crystallization mechanisms, and thus as a tool in controlling crystal shape. (Image courtesy of Molecular Simulations Inc., San Diego, CA)...
