Help With A Science Experiment?????????

Question

I really need help on this assignment, just enough to get started. And no, i am not asking for someone to do it for me! This is the assignment:

Write a lab protocol that includes and identifies the following criteria. You may list the steps in the procedure for your lab.

o Variable (dependent and independent)

o Replication

o Control

o Hypothesis (If/related to/then format you learned earlier)

o Data table

o Expected results and explanation for results

A few possible variables are listed below. In parentheses, a method of measuring for the variable is suggested.

o fructose (fructose testing tape)

o salt (hydrometer or specific gravity meter used to measure levels of salinity in salt water fish tanks)

o protein (use a protein measuring stick)

o concentration of starch (make different molarities of starch and measure their concentration with the number of iodine drops to require a certain blue color - this is highly qualitative, a more quantitative measurement may be suggested)

o others

Answer 1

just don't do it,

Answer 2

first you need to pick an experiment, and since you are just simulating it, try to make it something that you can find on the internet, or that the data results are well known, like salt increases buoyancy of water, then you need to list the variables, i.e. amount of salt is independent, buoyancy is dependent, control would be just tap or bottle water, the one were you dont add salt , hypothesis can be a if then statement. . .

If there is more salt then the water will have a larger buoyancy.

o, btw, i dont know how buoyancy is measured, so that would require some editing.

expected results are the conclusions made from a data table, since you are actually doing the project, try to find some numbers on the internet, and then you explain the results like you would with any project.

contact me if you need any clarifications!
