Science Fair project ideas having to do with baking and/or scrapbooking?
November 14th, 2008 | by admin |I'm looking for (8th grade) Science Fair project ideas having to do with baking or scrapbooking. Any ideas or websites where I could find these topics would be appreciated.
We did one called Bitter/Sweet…we took 2 canning jars put 3 tablespoons of sugar in one and 3 tablespoons of salt in the other and added food color to identify wich was sugar and which was salt…put a ruler between them and took a picture every day to watch the evaporation…we put it in the oven on 200 degrees for several days and took a picture daily…marked the evaporation on a chart with corresponding marker that matched the food color,,the purpose for this was to see how much sugar we could reclaim and how much salt we could reclaim after the liquids were disolved…amaizingly enough the salt was reclaimed by volume but the sugar was not…the salt crystalized like salt crystals and the sugar formed a sheet of crystal glass it was very unique….
My daughter took first place and we had a blast and it was very easy…only took about a week from start to finish…
Give it a try and good luck…
dont forget to vote for me if you like the idea..k…
