A factor is a variable which is deliberately varied between trials, in order to study its influence on the outcome. * experimental factors or other conditions may influence the outcome. There are two main types of variables to consider: * ** Treatment factors: When you are especially interested in studying how the outcome varies as a function of these factors. ** Confounders: Other factors or covariates, such as temperature, pH, humidity, drift over time, etc. that may influence the outcome. In the biological or health sciences, age, sex and other characteristics of an individual may be confounders.

∙ 12y agoIt is an Value that you could change in your experiment. you can only have one experimental variable per test otherwise your results will not be accurate and the test on the whole will not be fair.
For example, if you were asking how long it takes for an Ice cube to melt. your Experimental varaible could be the size of the ice cube.
Hope it helped. x :)

What is an experimental control?
A group of experimental subjects that is not exposed to a chemical or treatment being investigated so that it can be compared with experimental groups that are exposed to the chemical or treatment. cw: An experimental control may be the control group. In general, the experimental control is something that allows you to say that the treatment effects on the experimental group are due to the treatments, rather than anything else.
How does the experimental mole ratio compare with the theoretical mole ratio?
the experimental mole ratio has a bigger penis
What is the difference between control and experimental variables?
Control Variable = kept in constant in a experiment Experimental Variable = changes in a experiment
Why is experimental design a key factor in science inquiry?
The experimental design is always a key factor in the science inquiry. The experimental design shows the methods that lead to the science.

In an experiment a group that is identical to a control group except for one factor and that is compared with the control group?
a controlled experiment is an experiment that tests only one factor at a time by using a control group and experimental group

What is the difference between factor and treatment in a experiment?
treatment is a factor in which a researcher will apply to an experimental unit and collect the data from the same. factor is a material used by researcher in an experiment in the field .
What is an experimental variable?
A variable whose values are independent of changes in the values of other variables. The factor you are testing.
