Q.1
A conclusion is...
  • based on the design of the experiment
  • a summing up of what the results show
  • the hypothesis
  • a statistical test
Q.2
Conclusions are based on which of the following?
  • Hypothesis
  • Mean
  • Range
  • Results
Q.3
We refer to this in the conclusion, and state whether the results agree.
  • Objective
  • Prediction
  • Data
  • Mean
Q.4
What is the conclusion for the following data? Temperature/degrees Celsius           Volume of gas/cm                     20                                                   5                     30                                                   12                     40                                                   26
  • As the temperature increased, the volume of gas decreased
  • As the volume of gas increased the temperature decreased
  • As the temperature increased, the volume of gas remained the same
  • As the temperature increased, the volume of gas increased
Q.5
Conclusions are positioned...
  • at the start of the report
  • in the results table
  • at the end of the report
  • within the method
Q.6
Which of the following is the correct order for writing up an experiment?
  • Prediction - method - results - conclusion
  • Conclusion - method - results - prediction
  • Results - prediction - method - conclusion
  • Prediction - method - conclusion - results
Q.7
If the results double every time the key variable is doubled, the conclusion will say the results are in...
  • direct proportion
  • indirect proportion
  • inconclusive
  • unusual
Q.8
Results which disagree with the prediction are described as...
  • anomalous
  • outliers
  • not supporting the prediction
  • supporting the prediction
Q.9
If results do not support the prediction, it means that...
  • the prediction was correct
  • the prediction could have been wrong
  • we rushed the experiment and must repeat it
  • we need to do more research
Q.10
What is the conclusion for the following data? Height/mm           Mass/g       15                        26       20                        6       25                        31
  • As the height increased, the mass increased
  • As the height increased, the mass decreased
  • As the height decreased, the mass decreased
  • No trend in the data, inconclusive
