- 2. A statement based on experimental measurements and observations summarising the results.
- 3. An action involving a hazard that might result in danger.
- 5. Physical, chemical or biological quantities or characteristics that can change.
- 7. A potential source of harm
- 10. A set of measurements with very little spread about the mean value.
- 12. A collection of numerical data that describes a property of an experiment.
- 13. The equipment or things needed to carry out an experiment.
- 16. A variable that has values that fall into a limited number of groups with no overlaps.
- 17. A substance that catches fire easily
- 19. The variable of which values are changed by the investigator.
- 22. A substance that may cause burns to skin and damage to eyes. It may corrode metals.
- 23. A substance that may cause death.
- 24. A variable that can have values that can be given a magnitude (size) either by counting or measuring.
Down
- 1. An error that causes readings to be spread about the true value, due to results varying in an unpredictable way.
- 4. An error that causes readings to differ from the true value by a consistent amount each time.
- 6. A proposal intended to explain certain facts or observations.
- 8. A result that does not fit the pattern.
- 9. A measurement or description of objective changes or behaviours.
- 11. The smallest scale division on a measuring instrument.
- 14. A measurement judged to be close to the true value.
- 15. The variable of which the value is measured for each and every change of the independent variable.
- 18. To consider the validity of a set of data.
- 20. A statement suggesting what will happen in the future, based on observation, experience or a hypothesis.
- 21. A variable that could affect the outcome of the investigation and has to be kept constant.
