1. Define Problem\n2. Research\n3. Hypothesize\n4. Experiment\n5. Analyze\n6. Conclusion\n\nThose are basically the steps but there are variations on it.

By laying aside presumption and actually looking.\nBy careful observation and analysis.\nBy doing what the average person can't, seeing past the end of their own noses.\nBy examining the real world and drawing conclusions based on what can be seen and unambiguously proved.\nBy being able to see the world in a way that isn't obscured by self-interested ideology.\nBy recognizing personal and societal fallibility and fighting against it.\nBy being the most thorough critics of their own conclusions. \nBy being able to lay aside appealing ideas that aren't supported by experiments and observations.\nBy not trying to by an authority unto themselves, science isn't just any one persons opinion, it is the aggregate of generations of hammering away at ignorance trying to figure out the truth.

Science Fair--determine your topic, take a guess at the answer (hypothesis), find out if you're right (do the study to determine the answer).  That's how you do it.

Are you asking how to write it up? You say you've already done the experiment.\n\nGenerally school practical write ups have an introduction, methods, results, discussion and conclusion. Start with your methods and results then do your discussion, write your introduction and conclusion last once you know what the data shows.\n\nIf you are asking how to do the practical first you need to work out what you are testing e.g the effect of solute concentration on osmosis. Work out what controls you need and what you will need to keep constant. Next you need to work out a way to measure the osmosis, probably in this case measuring the swelling (or shrinking) of the potato chip either by volume or by mass.

There are certain steps to perform a hypothesis test.\n\n1. Construct a null hypothesis Ho .\n2. Construct a alternate hypothesis H1.\n3. Decide test statistics and parameters [this includes degrees of freedom, significance value] [inmost cases its denoted by Z or t].\n4. Compute the p-value.\n5. Check with the available table.\n6. make inferences wether the hypothesis is accepted or not.\n\nThere is no fixed fomulae for this, but the choice of null hypothesis and test statistics depends on the problem. \n\nThe type of null hypothesis depends on the probelm(wether certain parameters are given or certain distributions are followed by given data etc) and the test statistics depends on parameters.\n\nI hope now you know it.\n\nAll the best

we now have the scientific method.without it, most scientific discoveries wouldn't have been possible.In fact we wouldn't even have technology!!!

well..write them down ...try to derive them (if their derivation is simple enough or else skip it )......\n\ntry to connect each formula with other one with a hint ....a small hint will help u to recollect other one ....\n\ntry to do at least one problem based on each formula

I used to judge high school level science projects, so here is what I would like to see:\n1. Make an observation about something that you want to try to explain or figure out. Why does this happen? That is the basic question you are going to answer. It doesn't have to be earth-shattering, but it helps if the answer is not already known to everyone. Floating Diet Coke and Coke cans to see which is denser is perhaps an interesting experiment, but hardly difficult to predict. Using coffee filters to do paper chromatography to separate compounds can be ingenious and dramatic, especially if you find something to test that is a real problem like detecting some sort of carcinogen in food. \n \n2. Research the project. Check in the library and on the internet for possible research that has been done similarly to your problem. Even if it has been done, you might want to retest the answer that other researchers got. Make a list of your research results as your references. Your ideas might change in this stage.\n\n3. Form a hypothesis about what you think will happen. You can have more than one. Your project should be able to be tested by an experiment. \n \n4. Design your experimental procedure. Write it out. Figure out what the variables are in your experiment and try to test only one of them at a time. Keep all the other variables constant. You can change the other variables to see the change in the effect of one variable on another variable. \n\n5. Record your data as you do the experiment. Keep lots of notes so that someone who wants to see your records can see what you have done. \n\n6. Do some calculations with your results. Make a graph, tables, and draw conclusions. \n\n7. Summarize it and state how it could be done differently or better. Here you can speculate about what sort of things might be meant by your results. \n\nIf you do all this stuff, even if your experiment is not dramatic, you are likely to impress the judges with your understanding of the scientific method. Of course, having an exciting and imaginative project is also going to be needed to get first place. \n\nAs for the content, there is so much to choose from it is hard to guide you. If you are interested in biology, you can grow some fast growing plants under different conditions and see what happens. If you like earth sciences you could do a test on greenhouse gases, using a CO2 cartridge to fill a container, plain air in another, and perhaps one with high water vapor content and see which one absorbs the most heat from sunlight. It always helps to find something you are curious about or that concerns you. Rather than listing lots of ideas I would recommend you go to this website and get some ideas, and then discuss it with your teacher:\n\nhttp://sciencebuddies.com/

The Scientific Method\nby Anthony Carpi, Ph.D.\n\nA common misperception of science is that science defines "truth." Science does not define truth; rather, it defines a way of thought. It is a process in which experiments are used to answer questions. This process is called the scientific method and involves several steps:\n\n   1. Observation: The first step of the scientific method takes place when an observation is made regarding some event or characteristic of the world. This observation might lead to a question regarding the event or characteristic. For example, you might drop a glass of water one day and observe it crashing to the floor near your feet. This observation might lead you to ask a question, "Why did the glass fall?"\n   2. Hypothesis:In attempting to answer the question, a scientist will form a hypothesis (or some would say a guess) regarding the question's answer. In our example there are many possible hypotheses, but one hypothesis might be that an invisible force (gravity) pulled the glass to the floor.\n   3. Experimentation: Of all the steps in the scientific method, the one that truly separates science from other disciplines is the process of experimentation. In order to prove, or disprove, a hypothesis, a scientist will design an experiment to test the hypothesis. Over the centuries, many experiments have been designed to study the nature of gravity.\nhttp://www.visionlearning.com/library/module_viewer.php?c3=&mid=45&l=\n\nLegal methodology is basicly the bare facts.  The facts that do not have to be scientificly analysed.  Fingerprints, although have to be collected scientificly, are bare facts for instance.  The blood on the knife that killed the victim would be classed as legal methodology due to it being a fact that it was there at the scene of the crime and didn't need to be collected using scientific methods.\nI hope this helps

You're right, spectroscopy is the proper method...Below you'll find a link to a quick and simple explanation.

No.  The scientific method is to try to think of a rule or equation which will fit the observed data you already have, and apply it mathematically to predict the result of observations or experiments you have not made yet.  When you make them, and get the predicted results, the rule or equation is more likely, but it is never completely certain.\n\nThe mathematical method is as old as Euclid (about 500 BC).  From axioms, we deduce theorems which are at least as true as the axioms, and from these theorems we deduce more theorems.  All the way along, if the axioms are true, then the theorems are true too.

Scientific inquiry or the scientific method is a systematic approach to discovery or knowledge.  It involves first the clear unambiguous definition of the problem.  Once that is done, the next step is gathering data through observation and carefully designed experiments.  From the data are formed hypotheses which must then be tested.  From this comes knowledge of the subject under study. \nThe research process is simply an application of scientific inquiry.

You need an introduction, a hypothesis, materials and methods, results, and conclusions which include modifications of hypotheses.
