Testing saliva with litmus paper - what does it mean?
Well if you place blue litmus paper in saliva and it turns red, then the saliva is acidic. If you put red litmus in the saliva and it turns blue, then the saliva is alkaline. However, if the red litmus doesn't change colour and the blue litmus doesn't change colour, the saliva would be neutral.
A testable hypothesis is one that can be proved or disaprove by experiment or observation?
I think that a hypothesis is exactally that.
If three quarters of the elements are metals how are the remaining elements categorize?
If you're talking about categorisation that broad, then there are two categories:
Metals
Non-metals
What is the effect of mass on number of swings in pendulum experiment?
While we consider the pendulum experiment, we consider so many assumptions that the string is inelastic and there is no air friction to the movement of the bob.
With all these, we derive the expression for the time period of the pendulum as
T = 2 pi sqrt (l/g)
Here, in no way, mass of the bob comes to the scene.
So, mass of the bob does not have any effect on the time period or its reciprocal value, namely, frequency. ie number of swings in one second.
To eliminate the possibility of hidden or unknown variables the scientist must a control experiment.
Is chiling an onion before you cut it keep you from crying a 8th grade science project?
no UNLESSSS u use googles :D
What attraction is important to water striders?
Surface tension is important to water striders because surface tension gives them the ability to float and not sink and drown.
What are some science fair projects using golf balls?
I am just going without research on this, but you could test different types of golf balls and see the results and what golf balls work for different people. You research the way the golf ball compresses as well.
hope this helps!
Describe an experiment to find the refractive index of a glass block?
You can investigate fraction in glass using a rectangular glass block. By tracing the rays of light on a piece of paper, you can measure the angles of incidence (i) and refraction (r). If you repeat this process for a range of different angles of incidence, you would find that the sine of the angle of incidence and the sine of the angle of refraction are constant. This ratio is called the refractive index of the material, and is given the letter n.
The angles of incidence and refraction are related by the following equation:
sin i
n=__________
sin r
What are the small storage spaces in a cell called?
The storage areas of a cell are called vacuoles. They are typically enclosed by a membrane and store food, excess water, or waste.
In order to impart the greatest momentum to an object you should?
In order to impart the greatest momentum to an object, you should both exert the largest force possible upon the object in question and extend that force for as long as possible.
This is so because the greater the force acting on an object results in a greater change in velocity, which in turn yields a greater momentum.
In addition to exerting the largest force possible on an object, you should also extend that force over the longest period of time as possible, as the sustained force also produces more momentum.
As p= m•v, the best method in obtaining the greatest amount for 'p' would be to manipulate either the 'm' or 'v' variables.
Force= acceleration= change in velocity= MOMENTUM.
Greater amount of time= MOMENTUM

What could be catchy title name for my science fair project does age affect lung capacities?
Breath In, Breath Out

What is the van't Hoff factor for AlCl3?
The van't Hoff factor for AlCl3 is 4. AlCl3 dissociates into Al3+ and 3Cl- ions when it dissolves in water, resulting in a total of 4 ions in solution per formula unit of AlCl3.
Add salt to water and get pure water back?
you should distille the water ( heat the water so it evaporates and let it condensate into a cup or a mirror)
Do lighter colored candles have more wax then darker colored one?
light coloured candles do burn faster than darker coloured candles for one main reason. The darker the candle, the more dye molecules are involved in the candle which are non-flammable. Therefore, the lighter the candle, the less dye molecules are involved minimising the risk of the dye molecules interfering with the combustion process.
How much energy will be needed to vaporize 175g of water?
The amount of energy needed to vaporize 175 g of water depends on the temperature of the water. However, we shall assume it is 100 degrees C. We multiply 175 by 539 and get 94,325 calories. (Notice the small c). We could express it as 94 Calories if we were talking about the stuff on your dining room table.
What is the use of acids and alkalis to stings and bites?
The use is to neutralise the sting or bite.
