Acid Rain on Trees

Year 10 Student Research Assignment – By Joel Jacob

Aim:
The aim of my experiment was to find out how an acid rain solution effects pine trees in different ways and whether limestone changes the effects of the acid rain.

Introduction:
My experiment will prove whether limestone neutralises the effect of acid rain on pine trees. Through this experiment we you would be able to safely neutralise acidic soil because of the testing I have carried out.

Hypothesis:
In my experiment I will conduct an experiment with the results showing that limestone neutralises the effect of acid rain on pine trees and will therefore keep the trees healthy.

Method:
1. Line eight trees up in a line spacing them around 30cm apart. Space them this distance so it eliminates any possibility of trees and substances coming into contact with each other.
2. Label the trees in order from experimental variable 1, experimental variable 2, control 1, and control 2.
3. Add ...
