Question

Describe at least two ways that a researcher can minimize experimental errors in an investigation.

Answer 1

Experimental errors can be of two kinds: human error and analytical error. Analytical error can be corrected easily. You just have to use instruments that are of high precision. For example, instead of using the platform balance, use the analytical balance which displays 4 decimal places to be highly accurate. For the human error, this is subjective. The only way to correct human error is to be more meticulous on your data measurements.
