Title of the experiment:

1. Problem Question (a question that includes both the independent and dependent variables.
The hypothesis is a possible answer to this question)
_______________________________________________________________________
2. Aim (objective)
________________________________________________________________________
3. Background introduction (Research is needed to do a good job but put all information in your
own words (read, take brief notes, put texts away, write it up).

______________________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________

4. Hypothesis (Predict an outcome based upon the background information. he usual format
is “IF …something is done and it affects the object, THEN. The independent and dependent
variables should be identified in the hypothesis as well as the problem question).
5. Variables

Independent Variable (what Dependent Variable (what Controlled Variables (those

you are changing) you are measuring) factors that need to be held
the same in each trial to
ensure a fair test)

6. Materials and Methods ( Experimental Procedure)/safety

8. Conclusion (Explain what the results tell you. What is the answer to your problem? Restate the
hypothesis and compare your conclusion to it. How reliable are your results? Compare your results/values
with the literature. Calculate the percentage difference between the measured value and the literature
value)

9. Evaluation (Were the measurements accurate (close to the true values) and precise (close to each
other)? Discuss any difficulties. The impact of errors and suggestions for improvement)
