Project
description:
In this project you test different foods or fruits for their
vitamin C content. Materials that you need for your experiments
can be found locally or purchased online. You may complete your
experiments in one day, however there are hundreds of other
vitamin C related projects that you may choose to do and they
take more than a few days. Among other vitamin C related
questions that can be the subject of a Science Project are:
- How does the amount of
vitamin C change when fruits get older?
- How does the storage
temperature affect the amount of vitamin C in fruits?
- How does cooking affect the
vitamin C in foods?
