** Be sure to explain the chemistry involved in your project.

               2) Water testing (not bottled)

               3) Soil Testing

               4) Corrosion of metals

               5) Acid Rain

               6) Laundry detergent effectiveness

 

Begin Testing ASAP

You may work in groups of two as long as both students are taught by the same teacher. * However, the project will be due at the earliest date between the two students.*
