Hi guys I also need a title for my science project.

I am testing two rivers and comparing them. I am testing pH, Nitrite and organisms in the river.
can you give me some ideas on my science project!!!

Often the most effective title for a science fair project will be to state your most important hypothesis. That lets the judges know immediately what your project is all about. Please tell us more about your project! What are your hypotheses? How are you measuring your variables?

My hypothesis is that the ngamuwahine river will be cleaner than the waimapu river because it is very clear and in previous tests it has proven itself to be potable

So you think that the river with the best clarity will also have the greatest purity?

Maybe you could turn that into a question and use that for your title?

Maybe, do you have any ideas how I could do that or how I could word it?

Hi bubbles100,

Usually, your title (esp. if you're entering this into a science fair) will be in the format "The Effect of [Independent Variable] on [Dependent Variable]" (or like Madeline said, in a clear way that states the hypothesis)! Perhaps think about constructing your title in a similar fashion (remember that your independent variable, in this case, would be the purity of the river)!

Hope this helped!
