jylee23 Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Hi I am writing a Chemistry rate of reaction IA and I am a little bit confused about what I have to do for Conclusion and Evaluation. It would be extremely helpful if anyone could write what I should include. Also, what should be the ideal length of conclusion? Thank you so much!!

There isn't really any ideal length, but points you have to follow.1) You should include patterns or trends that were observed, relationships, etc.2) More qualitative observations3) State the data's reliability (are there any anomaly data points?)4) Calculate the percentage error and compare to literature value5) Evaluate the method - is it reliable? Comment on some sources of errors.6) Calculate the total percentage uncertainty - then you gotta compare it to the percentage error7) Table for weaknesses and limitations (don't forget to state the source of error for each whether it's random or systematic)Hope this helps!! 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbTrojan Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Baller97 gave a pretty accurate list as to what you need to include. I know when I write mine, I add some of those things in a discussion section rather than in the evaluation. What I add are the weaknesses/limitations and possible solutions to either avoid them or improve them (based on the rubric) and extensions for the lab conducted. And when stating your conclusion, remember to include your answer to your question, whether the hypothesis was supported or not, and all uncertainties with percent error where applicable Hope this helps 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechnight Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 Thank you so much!! and for literature values, do we search it on the internet? because I am having trouble finding it... Just don't forget to include the source Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
