There are quite a few characteristics that go into a good research problem such as looking into a problem people actually care about. Another characteristic is gathering information about something that is unknown.
1.It's phrased in good operational words such as "to describe" "to compare" etc, (bad operational terms such as "to understand", "to appreciate", and "to study" should not be used.)
2.It should clearly indicate,
- the purpose of doing
- where will it be done

Generally speaking, whether a research problem is historical, descriptive, and experimental or ease study, the characteristics of a research problem has the acronym SMART - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time bound. This means that a research problem should be:
Specific
The problem should be specifically stated. For instance, Euchema cultured in municipal waters of estancia, Iloilo, Philippines using lantay and hanging methods?
For descriptive research, "What is the mean growth increment of Euchema cultured in municipal waters of Estancia, Iloilo, Philippines using Lantay and hanging methods?
Measurable
It is easy to measure by using research instruments, apparatus or equipment. For example, in experimental research , the equipment and apparatus used in collecting data on the cultivation of Euchema using Lantay and hanging methods are weighing scale to get the weight of seaweed: refractometer, salinity of water : thermometer,
temperature of water: DO meter , dissolved oxygen of water, and pH meter, acidity of water.
For descriptive research, the instruments used in gathering of data are questionnaires, tests, checklists, and many others.
Achievable
The data are achievable using correct statistical tool used in this specific problem "Is there a significant difference on the mean growth increment of Euchema using lantay and hanging, is better. If no- significant difference existed, this means the mean growth increment of Euchema using lantay and hanging methods are almost the same.
Realistic
Real results are attained because they are gathered scientifically and not manipulated or maneuvered.
Time bound
Time frame is required in every activity because the shorter completion of the activity, the better.

A good research problem is one which already has some body of literature behind it. That way, a person has scientific literature to back up their inquiry.
A good research topic will be interesting to everyone. It will also be easy for you to research and have plenty of material to put in your paper.
Sampling is important as data collected is used to test the hypothesis. A good sample is a true representation of the general population. In addition, it should be flexible and focus on the research objectives.
