Scientific Method
A systematic approach used by scientists to conduct experiments, including steps like observation, hypothesis formation, experimentation, data analysis, and result communication.
Hypothesis
A testable theory or explanation proposed to answer a scientific question or to account for a set of observations.
Lab Equipment
Tools like flasks, beakers, test tubes, timers, rulers, pipettes, scales, thermometers, and measuring cylinders used in chemistry experiments for various purposes.
Lab Chemicals
Substances commonly used in chemistry experiments, including water, salts, acids, alkalis, and organic compounds.
Precision
The consistency of values to each other in measurements.
Accuracy
The closeness of a measured value to the true or standard value.
Data Visualization
Using tables, charts, and graphs to present experimental findings in a clear and organized manner.
SI Units
Standard International units like meters, kilograms, joules, and seconds used by scientists for consistency in measurements.
Correlation
A relationship between two sets of data, which does not necessarily imply causation.
Causation
A relationship between two sets of data in which changes in one set directly causes changes in the other.
Scientific Theory
A general explanation for a phenomenon that can be applied to various situations, subject to testing and modification based on new data.
Peer Review
A process in which a scientist submits research for other scientists (usually in a similar field) to review.
