b. The red and green inks will be uniformly distributed throughout the pan.

Answer:

b. The red and green inks will be uniformly distributed throughout the pan.

Explanation:

The inks distribute throughout the particles of water. It does not matter that one drop of ink was placed in one end, and the other on the other end. The constant movement and collision of particles make the ink's drop distribute uniformly in the pan. Besides, there will we a tendency to have the same amount of ink concentration in all the pan;  to this, they have to distribute evenly.
