Paper 6 Tips and Tricks
Explain why the experiment was repeated.
To reject anomalies to calculate mean to increase reliability
A control experiment is made to compare results clearly in
colour change experiments and to test for only one variable
or to make sure that change is due to one specific factor in
experiments like plants.
Some controls can be: 1) boil enzyme substance {for enzyme
experiments} 2) Same volumeconcentrationamountmass 3) same time
4) same speciestype 5) same typesize of apparatus
Sources of errors:
If the question did not mention that the experiment was repeated
If the question did not mention cleaning apparatus
In Benedict experiment if the question did not specify temperature of
water bath
Not using a wide range of temperatures is a source of error
Using long time intervals is a source of error
Shaking can cause spillage and affects volume Improvement use electrical
or magnetic stirrer
Drawings:
Size of the drawing should be more than half of available space
Avoid broken and feathery lines
