Answer:

The colours will not separate

Step-by-step explanation:

Chromatography is a method of separation that is used to separate two substances which move at different speeds along a stationary phase.

The separation involves a mobile phase which carries the mixture to be separated and an immovable stationary phase on which the separation occurs.

When a mixture of colours travels at the same speed down a chromatographic column(stationary phase), separation becomes impossible because the both colours move together along the stationary phase.
