Science fair proposal By: Gilbert Villalobos 10-19-17 Abstract My goal was to find out if temperature affects the strength of a magnet. If the strength of the magnet either has more effect either in the pot of boiling water or in the bowl of ice, which ever magnet gets the less paper clips attached to it will have the greatest effect. Background A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field. This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, and attracts or repels other magnets. Materials/Procedures My Materials were a plastic bowl, …show more content…

Next, I put the water to boil and started putting a magnet in each container and pot, i left one magnet in room temperature. After, I got a plastic bowl and put 50 paper clips in it. Then, after 10 minutes had past I took each magnet out from each obstacle and put each magnet in the plastic bowl(full of paper clips)for 2 seconds. Finally, I counted how many paper clips each magnet had for each trial. (4 trials) Hypothesis My guess of what might happen is that the magnet that is going to be in the pot of boiling water is gonna have the greatest affect on because heat is a lot stronger and does much more damage to anything than the …show more content…

This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, and attracts or repels other magnets. Materials/Procedures My Materials were a plastic bowl, standard #1 paper clips, containers to hold ice and dry ice, small pot for boiling water, thermometer, and 2 magnets. My methods were that first I got the pot and the plastic containers. Second, I put water into the pot, and ice and dry ice into the plastic containers. Next, I put the water to boil and started putting a magnet in each container and pot, i left one magnet in room temperature. After, I got a plastic bowl and put 50 paper clips in it. Then, after 10 minutes had past I took each magnet out from each obstacle and put each magnet in the plastic bowl(full of paper clips)for 2 seconds. Finally, I counted how many paper clips each magnet had for each trial.

    (Bjornsson, 2013) With a similar setup as Faraday they passed a magnet through a cardboard tube that had wire wrapped around it. As more loops were added more current was shown on a galvanometer. They tested Faraday’s process and proved it to be correct.

  • Tap Water Electrolytes Experiment

    This disproved my hypothesis that Powerade would have the most electrolytes and proved that orange juice contains more and would be better for hydration. It answered my investigative question of which liquid would have the most electrolytes with orange juice coming in first place, Powerade in second place and tap water in last place. I would like to improve the experiment by adding in more variables such as more substances to test and testing at different temperatures to see if the temperature has an effect on the conductivity. I also feel that I would like to get more copper wire to change it after each trial as I think the oxidation of the copper wire caused my later readings to fluctuate and perhaps be inaccurate. I therefore conclude that orange juice proved to be the most conductive and that the oxidation o the copper wires caused some of the later readings to fluctuate but overall I feel that the results were accurate.

    Introduction The intent of this experiment is to understand how hot and cold water interact with each other by combining clear hot water and black ice cold water. I hope to learn more about how hot and cold water interact with each other. As of now, I know that cold water is denser than hot water. Knowing this I formed my hypothesis.

    Be cautious when performing this experiment as water may spill on the floor, slip and injure yourself badly. Check the floor surface area for any puddles of water and wipe down with as many dry paper towels needed. Take care when handling with equipment that is made out of plastic or glass because when dropped, the glass or plastic may shatter into pieces which can be very dangerous. If needed, ask a responsible adult to help out in the experiment to avoid injuries.

    After seeing this data the two most effective look chemical at resisting energy was CaCl2 and LiCl. So we looked at the price of both of this chemical CaCl2 cost 6.55$ per 500g and LiCl cost 32.75$ per 500g because CaCl2 was substantially cheaper we decide to chose it to use in own hand warmer. We calculated that it would take 22g of CaCl2 to create a 20oC increase in temperature of 100ml of water. Some sources of error in this lab, would be heat escape from not be able to replace the lid of the calorement went adding chemical into it, inaccuracies in the balance, and not waiting of the proper time to recode the

    You only have to find them. Tools to get you started When you head out to look for scraps—whether at home, in the barn, your backyard, or a promising site elsewhere, you must have the right tools. Magnets attract ferrous items such as iron and steel, while aluminium, brass, and stainless steel (non-ferrous) are not responsive. Carrying a magnet will tell you whether the metal component you found is non-ferrous, which is more valuable in the scrap industry.
