Answer:

half water, half alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Some inks are water soluble while some are alcohol soluble. Inks that do not dissolve in water usually dissolve in alcohol.

If inks are to be separated by chromatography, we have to make the mobile phase a mixture of alcohol and water in order for the dots to move the most.
