Project Outcome: Scientific experiment with 2 lead pencils, water and a battery
Project Description: Aashvi conducted an insightful experiment on electrolysis as part of her Genius Hour project, focusing on the conductivity of different materials. Through hands-on investigation, she applied key scientific skills, deepening her understanding of the electrolysis process. She carefully observed how various materials influenced the outcome of the experiment, noting differences in their ability to conduct electricity.
Aashvi asked thoughtful, inquiry-driven questions, such as why certain materials facilitated the process while others did not. Her observations led her to a clear conclusion—that metals are effective conductors and allow electrolysis to occur efficiently. This project showcased her curiosity, analytical thinking, and ability to draw meaningful conclusions through experimentation.
