Fourteen Food Science Projects

Blog Post

Kids experiment with food science projects to investigate the science behind the process of making certain foods and recipes. From cheesecake and dough to marinades and gelatin-based desserts, there are plenty of taste-test opportunities for K-12 food science exploration at home! 14 K-12 Food Science Projects and Activities For kids interested in chemistry or in cooking and food science, kitchen science projects are a great way to experiment with… Read more

Free Lunch? Can Solar Energy Systems Pay for Themselves with Utility Bill Savings?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

If you are interested in exploring how renewable energy can improve the environment, this project could be for you. You'll take on a real-life engineering challenge: deciding whether the benefits of a renewable energy technology are worth the cost to implement it. Some sample questions are suggested, but you can also come up with your own question that matches your specific renewable energy interest. Is there such thing as a free lunch? Read more

Free Power from the Sun!

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Do you like getting something for nothing? Everybody likes getting things for free. How about getting energy and power for free? The Sun sends us free energy every second and all we have to do is collect it. Taking advantage of free energy can reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, which are harmful to our environment. In this science fair project, you will work with a solar panel, which is a collector of free energy, and investigate how varying the angle of the solar panel, and thus the amount… Read more

Pop Science Quiz: What happens to water when it reaches 0°C (32°F)? Answer: It freezes! But does water always freeze when it reaches 0°C (32°F)? Believe it or not, water can sometimes be cooled to temperatures below its freezing point and still remain liquid. In this state the water is supercool. How can this happen? In this activity you will create your own supercool water, and initiate its transition from liquid to solid. All while making a tasty snack! Read more

Frequency-Dependent Sound Absorption

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Want to start a garage band, but Mom or Dad won't let you because it will make too much noise? This is a good project for someone who is interested in acoustics and likes to build things. Who knows, it might help you figure out how to make everyone happy. Read more

From Black to Clear with the Magic of Photochemistry

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

The rates of some chemical reactions can actually be increased by adding light. Light sometimes interacts with one or more of the chemicals and provides an "energy boost" that dramatically speeds up a normally slow reaction. In this photochemistry science project, you will experiment with the effect of light on a chemical reaction. The reaction converts iodine, which forms a dark-orange solution, to iodide, which is colorless! Read more

Fruit Juice Distillation

Blog Post

Explore the process of distillation with a kitchen chemistry activity using fruit juice. What role does boiling the juice play in the process? Mixing water (a solvent) and sugar (a solute) together will give you a solution, a homogenous mixture in which the solute has completely dissolved. You can reverse the process and separate the solution back into its parts using distillation. (Note: there are some solutions for which distillation does not work!) In this week's… Read more
