I have a wonderful science project for the young child or a child who may have a hard time learning science but still needs a successful science project idea. It is not complicated and they will be able to do it themselves and enjoy the outcome.
Make a hypothesis (this is your sentence about what you think is going to happen in the science project experiment) about which solution you think will be worse for the egg shell and what you think will happen to it.
You can do this two ways but this is the easiest.
You will need the following
5 eggs
5 cups
1 cup coke or Pepsi
1 cup vinegar
1 cup water
1 cup tomato juice
1 cup milk
Take each of your cups of different liquid and put in one of the glasses. Place an egg into each solution making sure the egg is completely covered by the liquid in the glass.
Place them on a counter and leave them sit overnight.
In the morning remove each egg to a separate paper towel and write down your visual inspection of each egg. Now carefully use the paper towel to wipe off any excess residue from the egg. Examine the ...
... egg and its structure. Did any solution change the hardness of the egg shell? If so which one? If more than one solution did what differences did you find in each liquid?
Now take 5 bowls and place water in them and put each egg separately into one of the bowls and leave sit on the counter the remainder of the day. In the evening remove each one again to a napkin. Did any soak up the water? If so which eggs soaked up water Make dure you put the same amount of water in each bowl.
You can also do this project with two sets of cups and two sets of eggs and one set of eggs leave alone and the other set wipe with fluoride before putting into the solution and see if the fluoride protects the egg and if so does it only do it with some solutions and not others or does it protect the egg shell from all solutions.

Your child will love doing this science project by themselves.
