Description | ||
This science fair project was conducted to ascertain the various factors that determine the boiling point of water. The science project experiment involved comparing the effect of different amounts of water, different types of heating devices, different room temperatures and different heights above sea level, on the boiling point of water. | ||

1. For this science fair project, the independent variables are the conditions for boiling the water - different amounts of water, diffenent types of heating devices, different room temperatures and different floor level of a building. The dependent variable is the boiling temperature of water. This is determined by measuring the temperature using the thermometer. The constants (control variables) are the beaker used to contain the water, the impurities in the water and the heating capacity of the stove and hot plate. 2. The science project experiment is done in 4 stages to compare the boiling point of water ..... |
