Biography
My name is Ali Rizvi and I am a grade 9 student from Moosomin, Saskatchewan. I attend McNaughton High School and am actively involved in a variety of activities within the school, including soccer, basketball, badminton, and track & field. I also hold a 2nd Dan black belt in taekwondo and have won many awards in various math competitions. I was inspired to do my project after reading an article about how an electric car battery exploded after a crash. My goal was to create a battery that was non-flammable, low cost, environmentally friendly, and effective. For any students that wish to pursue a science project, my advice would be to choose a topic that you are passionate about, and examine all aspects of the problem in depth before devising a solution.

Investigating Aqueous Solution Electrolytes
Challenge:Energy
Category:Intermediate
Region:Southeast Saskatchewan
City:Moosomin, SK
School:McNaughton H.S.
Abstract:The purpose of this project is to create an effective, non-flammable, and environmentally friendly lithium-ion battery. My idea is to replace organic battery electrolytes currently used in lithium-ion batteries with an aqueous solution that lowers explosion risk and is more capable than modern batteries. These water-electrolyte batteries are excellent candidates to use in electric vehicles due to being non-flammable and having a low manufacturing cost.
