Anomalous Results - G.Science Grade 8


Froggy Jumps Anomalous Results - G.Science Grade 8Online version This topic is about anomalous results and suitable for grade 8 students. They must choose the exact answer for each questions by novica rahmadhani 1 What is an anomalous result? a A measurement that does not fit the pattern or is significantly different from what is expected. b A measurement that perfectly aligns with a scientific law or a line of best fit. c 2 What is another common term used in science for an anomalous result? a Range b Outlier c 3 How should you handle an obvious anomalous result when drawing a line of best fit on a graph? a Stop the line entirely before reaching the x-coordinate of the anomalous point. b Ignore the anomalous point and draw the line through the remaining points that fit the pattern. c 4 What can the presence of anomalous results affect? a The average and the range of a set of results. b The independent variable chosen before the experiment started. c 5 What type of error typically causes an anomalous result that affects only one reading? a A random error b A historical error c 6 Which of the following is an example of a random error caused by human observation difficulties? a Using electronic sensors that log data automatically at exact intervals. b Reading a measuring cylinder scale from different angles each time. c 7 If someone forgets to start or stop a stopwatch promptly, what kind of experimental problem arises? a A source of random error that can cause an anomalous result. b . A change in the true atomic mass of the chemicals involved. c 8 What is a valid reason to safely ignore an anomalous result when analyzing a pattern? a b You should ignore any data point that you personally dislike or find difficult to graph. c 9 Which of the following equipment issues represents a source of error mentioned in the text? a The apparatus is faulty or a balance is not being set at zero. b The apparatus is too clean and lacks dust particles. c 10 A student performs the experiment but forgets step D entirely, leaving the crucible lid tightly sealed the entire time after the magnesium starts to burn. What is the most likely outcome regarding the mass change? a The mass change will remain perfectly accurate because the lid keeps the system completely isolated. b The mass will increase less than expected because the magnesium will run out of oxygen to react with c 11 Why is it chemically important to 'clean' the magnesium ribbon with an abrasive material (like sandpaper) before measuring its initial mass in step A? a To remove any pre existing layer of magnesium oxide that would skew the initial mass data b To coat the magnesium with carbon particles to catalyze the thermal combustion process c 12 Which of the following modifications would best improve the reliability of the results if you suspect some magnesium oxide was lost as smoke? a Repeat the experiment multiple times and intentionally minimize the time the lid is lifted b Perform the heating process over a shorter duration at a significantly lower temperature. c 13 The range is the ........ between the ............ and the lowest values. a difference, highest b total, greatest c 14 The temperature of the liquid stays the same as it ....... a evaporates b boils c
