electricity?Which fruit produces the

least amount of electricity?

HYPOTHESIS

menu

We think that fruits will make electricity, but only a little bit, and that only the acid fruits will make

electricity.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS

menu

NONE OF THE FRUIT PRODUCED ANY ENERGY, ALTHOUGH THE LEMON AND THE ORANGE WERE SUPPOSED TO HELP THE LIGHT BULB LIGHT UP.

WE KNOW THAT THE LEMON AND THE ORANGE WERE SUPPOSE TO WORK BUT WE THINK IT CAN WORK WITH BIGGER FRUITS OR SOME OTHER LIGHT BULB . MAYBE THE FRUIT BECAME ROTTEN. WE KNOW THAT ACID IN FRUITS CAN MAKE ELECTRICITY.
