Answer 1

If your project is on different colors, then you might want to include jars wrapped in paper of different color - same thickness. You can use foil, but it's not paper and doesn't really compare if your project is on colors.

You might include a chart that shows the different wavelengths of each color. The wavelengths will correspond directly to your study.

If you scroll down on this page, you can see where each color is on the wavelength scale. Find a type of paper that has these colors and use it for your experiment.
