Physics Science Fair Projects and Ideas

Friday, March 5th, 2010

Dee Schrock asked: Physics science fair projects are based on the study of matter and energy and focus on understanding electricity, energy, gravity, machines, magnets, and how certain materials change and combine. Studying these topics will give us a better understanding of how the world and the universe around us work. There are many different [...]

The Science Behind Hydrogen Hybrid Cars – The Applications of Electrolysis

Friday, February 19th, 2010

Sam Geo asked: So far we’ve looked at: An introduction to how electrolysis works in The Electrolysis of Water, then in The Equations of Electrolysis we broke down the scientific equations and previously in Electrolytes and Electrolysis we took a closer look at how electrolytes improve the process. So now, how do these things actually [...]

Monday, February 15th, 2010

http://www.weight-loss-area.com asked: Silver, a chemical element, exists in the periodic table with the symbol “Ag” and atomic number 47. Silver is a soft white lustrous transition metal. Due to the fact that it has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of any metal, silver is widel used throughout the world, used in used in coins, [...]

Production Of Iron And Aluminum, Water, Hydrogen, Alkaline Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, And Sodium

Monday, January 18th, 2010

Karel Kosman asked: Production of Iron and AluminumAnother use of electrolysis is the purification of pure metals from their ores. A supply of electrical current can work to spark an oxidation or reduction process, so that materials can be extracted from their electrolytic solutions, or from a mix of molten metals. In this way, materials [...]

Second Grade Science Projects and Ideas

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

Dee Schrock asked: Second grade science projects are simple and fun to do. You should pick a topic that can hold the interest of the children. At this age they are just learning how to figure things out for themselves, instead of being spoon fed information, and they’re very eager to learn new things. It’s [...]

Anatomy and Physiology Study Guides – Easy Way to Memorize Anatomy Terms

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

Stanley Callow asked: Studying anatomy and physiology can be very frustrating. Have you ever searched for a simpler way to study anatomy? I went thorough the pain of memorizing mountains of medical terms. I must tell you it’s not a simple task to remember them even English not to mention the Latin terms. If you [...]

The Science Behind Hydrogen Hybrid Cars – The Electrolysis of Water

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Sam Geo asked: The Electrolysis of water in Hydrogen Hybrid Cars happens when an electric current passes through the water causing the water (H2O) to break down into its two basic elements, oxygen (O2) and hydrogen gas (H2). It’s interesting to note that Industrial applications don’t use this method of hydrogen production much since they [...]

7th Grade Science Fair Project Ideas

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

Dee Schrock asked: 7th grade science fair project ideas are likely more involved than the projects you’ve done in previous years. The science fair at your school is likely more competitive for your age group and there’s a good chance your peers will be putting a lot more time and effort into their projects than [...]

Elementary Science Fair Projects

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

Doug Nicholson asked: I want to give you three ideas here for elementary science fair projects that can be easily done at home. And best of all you probably won’t have to buy any supplies for these projects since you likely will have them at your house already.These project ideas are about the process of [...]
