A group of project advisors at ScienceProject.com identified the 10 best science projects for the school year 2005-2006. Not surprisingly, most of these projects are related to energy, environment and health. Selections are based on the educational value, attractiveness, versatility and availability of materials and equipment or kits. The 10 best projects are listed below:

Air Battery/ Saltwater Battery In this project you will experiment making electricity using a revolutionary method. You may call this air battery because it uses the oxygen from the air. You may also call it salt water battery because it uses a solution of salt water as electrolyte. The electricity you produce can be high enough to light up a light bulb. You can extend the power by adding oxygen.
You can also perform experiments to see how does the amount of salt, the amount of oxygen, or the size of electrodes affect the amount of electricity or the battery life. Write your results in a table and use them to draw a graph. Recommended for ages 11 to 18. This is an experimental (investigatory) project.[See More Details]
