Why can liquids with greater densities be dropped from a higher height when inside a balloon?

I am doing a science fair experiment to find out which liquid inside a balloon can be dropped from the highest height without popping. I used milk, water, and dish soap. Dish soap was able to be dropped from the highest height and it is the liquid with the greatest density. Is it because liquids with greater densities can withstand more pressure when it hits the ground?

Can anyone give me some ideas for a quick science experiment?

My science fair project is due Monday and I need a new topic. I need an experiment that I can do in a few minutes, hours, or a couple of days. I had a topic and an experiment, but I did it wrong and didn’t realize it until a couple of days ago. Does anyone have any ideas?
I am in high school, so I need something that is a little advanced, but still simple and easy to do.

What is the independent variable, dependent variable, and control group?

My science fair experiment is to see if cigarette smoke effects plant growth, as well as how. One plant is getting smoke blown on/near it and then has a bag placed over it so the smoke sinks into the plant, while the other is not, just being treated as a regular plant with no smoke. Each plant is in the same environment and receives the same water/sunlight/temperature amount.

Thank you!

If I do my science fair project on forensics, would I have a shot at winning?

I feel like a dork asking this, but I’m REALLY into forensic science.
I know I want to do my project on forensics, for sure.
But I don’t know if it’s enough, I don’t know, experiments and stuff to impress the judges.

I plan on interviewing a dectective, coroner or criminalist, experimenting with luminol, getting a shoe impression kit and explaining how it can connect the suspect to the crime scene, explaining the ‘CSI effect’, etc.

This is my first science fair, and I have a reputation for being good at science. I guess just to sum my question up, I want to know if this is enough to even be considered by judges.
