Methods

Exp. Design: The independent variable in the lab was…. The dependent variable in the lab was…..

Materials: List all the materials used in the lab. This should be a list not written in sentences.

(Make sure that you actually used the item if you list the item.)

Procedure: A cardboard square was obtained. The area of the square was determined and recorded on the data table. The mass of the square was determined using an electronic balance. An area/mass conversion factor was calculated and recorded on the data table. ………..

Discussion

Data Analysis: Based on the data collected during the lab the following trend was observed……

Graphical Analysis: The graph of Area vs. Radius appeared to be parabola opening up. This suggested the equation y = k x²……..

The graph of Area vs. Radius² appeared to be a straight line. This suggested the equation y=kx + b…..

Error Analysis: There were many errors observed during the lab. One factor that caused error was…..

Evaluation Of Hypothesis: The Hypothesis stated at the beginning of the lab was ……..

Conclusion Statement: Based on the discussion this lab was a success. The purpose was to …… The results demonstrated….. This experiment could be repeated and yield similar results.
