 Troubleshooting 

Why did my pepper powder not spread? 
— it can be that there is already some washing soap in the water. When the water contains washing soap, you need to change some water without washing soap in it.

 Scientific Description 

Because the pepper powder is so light that the buoyancy and surface tension of the water support it on the water. Washing soap is designed to reduce the surface tension of the water. This trait makes them good cleaning tools. The water molecules, however, want to stick together. When the washing soap is added, The water molecules, however, want to stick together and maintain that tension, so they move away from the soap, carrying the pepper with them. You may also find that now the surface tension of the water is lower so some pepper powder sinks to the bottom of the water.

 Extensions 

We can replace the pepper powder with DIY glitter powder. There are so many materials available to replace the pepper powder. Can you find some?
