The special case above has c

A given volume of permanganate solution of a given concentration has physical properties related to the colour: the optical absorption spectrum is an extensive property, and the positions of the absorption maxima ( which are relatively independent of concentration ) are intensive properties.

He takes the slip to the shopkeeper, who opens the drawer marked ' apples ', then he looks up the word ' red ' in a table and finds a colour sample opposite it ; then he says the series of cardinal numbers — I assume that he knows them by heart — up to the word ' five ' and for each number he takes an apple of the same colour as the sample out of the drawer .— It is in this and similar ways that one operates with words —" But how does he know where and how he is to look up the word ' red ' and what he is to do with the word ' five '?

Chevreul worked as the director of the dye works at Les Gobelins tapestry works in Paris, where he noticed that the perceived colour of a particular thread was influenced by its surrounding threads, a phenomenon he called “ simultaneous contrast .” Chevreul ’ s work was a continuation of theories of colour elaborated by Leonardo da Vinci and Goethe ; in turn, his work influenced painters including Eugène Delacroix and Georges-Pierre Seurat.

A given absorption spectrum, for a certain observer, will always be perceived as the same colour ; but there may be several different absorption spectra which are perceived as the same colour: there is no precise one-to-one correspondence between absorption spectrum and colour even for the same observer.

There is some historical use of blue for Democrats and red for Republicans: in the late 19th century and early 20th century, Texas county election boards used colour coding to help Spanish speakers and illiterates identify the parties, however, this system was not applied consistently in Texas and was not picked up on a national level ; for instance, in 1888, Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison used maps that coded blue for the Republicans, the color Harrison perceived to represent the Union and " Lincoln's Party " and red for the Democrats.
