Key Stage 4
Meaning
A reproducible experiment is one which can be done again by another scientist and still get the same results.
About Reproducibility
- If two scientist cannot get the same results for the same experiment then the experiment is considered unreliable.
- If an experiment cannot be reproduced then it is likely that there were control variables that were not properly controlled.
- Reliable conclusions cannot be drawn from an experiment which is not reproducible.
