What is the best way to use Acids, Bases and Salts as a topic for a Chemistry fair?
970447
Test the common antacids (bases) to see which neutralize (turn to salt and water) best (if). \n\nAcid the strength of stomach acid is easy to mix and safe.\n\nGet an "A".

All of these seem to have good starts for ideas.  You should be able to find plenty of good projects that you'll be able to work on prior to your science fair,\n\nhttp://yahooligans.yahoo.com/Science_and_Nature/Experiments_and_Activities/Science_Fairs/\nhttp://www.ipl.org/div/kidspace/projectguide/\nhttp://school.discovery.com/sciencefaircentral/\nhttp://www.scifair.org/\nhttp://www.cdli.ca/sciencefairs/\nhttp://www.isd77.k12.mn.us/resources/cf/ideas.html\nhttp://staff.washington.edu/chudler/fair.html\n\nGood Luck

The following link has some good ideas for different projects.  \nhttp://www.all-science-fair-projects.com/category0.html\n\nAlso, the following link might help you set up a science fair display board if you have to have one.\nhttp://www.sciencebuddies.org/mentoring/project_display_board.shtml\n\nAn easy, but unique, project for a science fair entry is to test different types of materials for fire resistance.  My daughter used wool, cotton, satin, silk, rayon, nylon, and polyester.  All that is really needed for the experiment is the different materials and a candle with a small flame.  Make sure that you make your science board really neat and legible and clearly state your hypothesis and your observations.  Then, write a conclusion about what you learned from your experiment and whether or not your experiment proved your hypothesis.  Good luck!

Hi,, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen... \n\n good luck.....

Look up Alchemy and Chemistry on Wikipedia or a science site.  The table form you are speaking of seems to be like a chronological list which could be put in a "table" or a "chart"\nMake a grid with the left side being the dates.  to the right, use a much larger "box" to include the KEY event of the chemistry activity or discovery.  You would include things like the creation of fire, trying to turn lead or metal to gold (alchemy) creation of gunpowder, discovery of oxygen, theory of the atom from ancient times to recently, the addition of man made "elements" which are the radioactive elements.  This is not the correct order but you should check on each of these.  Try "key moments of chemistry" or something like that on google.  Look at the periodic table or see a description of the elements which make up the table.  Include Mendeleyev (spelled right?) who created the periodic table.  Etc. Etc.\n\nHere you go!  Don't copy it word for word: http://www.columbia.edu/itc/chemistry/chem-c2507/navbar/chemhist.html

Just the usual stuff.  Use an electrolyte (H2SO4/HNO3), a couple of electrodes, a reduction table of half cell potentials, and some electricity.

Acids & bases is pretty easy to understand. You could probably find quite a bit of stuff too, about their properties, indicators, things they're used for, all that stuff. Or you could try energy. It may be a little harder, but you could go on forever about energy. What types of energy there are (thermal kinetic, mechanical kinetic, radient, gravitational potential, electrical potential, chemical potential), how energy changes between forms, pahses changes in matter (because of energy), on and on and on. Hope that helps.

The cholor-akali process is an excellent method to make \n HCl all you need is  table salt,a battery and D.I.

It dosent matter what it is about, Its it you can use the scientific method correctly. ask you teacher to help you. And don't be afraid to ask. P.S. I've won 2 science fairs 2nd and 3rd Prize.

the periodic table. and all that stuff that has to deal with chemistry. compounds. atoms. matter.\n\n\ni am in 8th grade

This is simply not enough information to elicit serious suggestions.  At first I was going to suggest the topic, "How to teachers keep their jobs, when they are such idiots?" or some such.  But the answer would only depress us all.\n\nYou cannot ask for "specific subject" without even telling us if it is physics, chemistry, social science, or what.  But generally, I think research is most interesting when it is about a subject that most people consider too ordinary to warrant study, particularly if you discover something unexpected about it.  So if chemistry, make it the chemical steps involved in a cake raising.  If biology, make it how human fingers work.  If social science, what factors go into the design of a cereal box?  I once saw a fascinating article about why pizza tends to burn the roof of your mouth.  Real thermodynamics stuff, but with a human, everyday focus.

If you have the letter names, use the Periodic Table of Elements.  If not, use PH paper, and that might help.  Go by color, soluability, and texture.
