    The document provides guidance for answering science experiment questions in Form 5. It includes templates for the key components of an experiment: 1) Hypothesis - A statement relating the manipulated and responding variables. 2) Aim - To study the effect of the manipulated variable on the responding variable. 3) Variables - The constant, manipulated, and responding variables. 4) Method - The steps of the experiment, including any apparatus used. 5) Data - A table to record the manipulated variable and observed responses. 6) Conclusion - A statement rewriting the hypothesis based on results. The document provides examples of questions and outlines the expected content for a complete experimental answer.

    FORM 5 SCIENCE

    prepared by Mr Daryl Tan

    Section C : Experimenting STEPS 1. From the statement given, underline the words showing the manipulated and responding variable 2. Guided format in answering this type of question Find Manipulated Responding
    Making relationship between the manipulated variable with responding variable Eg:

    1 HYPOTHESIS

    The polar the manipulated, the polar the responding // If the polar manipulated so the polar responding//
    Note: If the above sentence cannot be used: The manipulated variable can be split. The sentence must have manipulated and responding variable Eg: Macronutrients are needed for healthy growth of plants Iron nail rust faster than steel nail 1m

    2 AIM OF EXPERIMENT 3 VARIABLES

    To study the effect of .......Manipulated....... on / to ......Responding . 1m (a) Constant : 1m Max. 2m (b) Manipulated: 1m (c) Responding : 1m

    4 APPARATUS AND
    MATERIALS

    Only the important apparatus and materials 1m


    Diagram must be labelled (if drawn) Students must write the steps of the experiment

    5 METHOD
    Note:

    Steps explaining constant variable - 1m 2. Steps explaining manipulated variable - 1m 3. Steps explaining responding variable - 1m
    If the result cannot be obtained at that particular time, remember to write this sentence

    4. Apparatus are left for .


    the experiment: Must write this sentence:

    1m

    If the student has no idea for

    Observation is recorded

    - 1m

    6 TABULATION OF DATA

    Draw table MANIPULATE RESPONDING Table must have: D Title of table have Manipulated and responding Data LEAVE Data Manipulated MANIPULATED BLANK Data Responding not needed

    1m 7 CONCLUSION
    Write the conclusion of the experiment @ Rewrite the hypothesis sentence

    1m

    Manipulated Section C - Experimenting

    The motion of an object is affected by its mass

    Responding Find Manipulated : Mass of object Responding Motion of object

    1 HYPOTHESIS

    Eg: The greater the mass of the object, the difficult the object to move // The more the mass of the object, the harder/difficult // If the mass is more , so the object is hard to move 1m To study the effect of mass of object on the motion of the object 1m (a) Constant : Size of tin// the height of tins hang 1m (b) Manipulated: Mass of tin (c) Responding : Motion of object/tin 1m

    2 AIM OF EXPERIMENT 3 VARIABLES

    4 APPARATUS AND
    MATERIALS

    1m max 2 m Tins, rope/ string, sand, retort stand // any place to hang the tins Note : Must have all 1m

    5 METHOD

    FORM 5 SCIENCE

    prepared by Mr Daryl Tan

    1. 2. 3. 4.

    Prepare two tins with the same size and hung up using rope at the same height - pt 1 (1 m) Fill one tin with sand and leave the other tin empty -pt 2 ( 1 m) Push the tins (with the same force) at the same time-pt 3 The tin that is harder to swing is observed -pt4 maximum 3 marks

    6 TABULATION OF DATAof tin/object Mass Less (empty tin) More (tin fill with sand) 7 CONCLUSION

    Motion of object

    1m Eg: The greater the mass of the object, the difficult the object to move // The more the mass of the object, the harder/difficult 1m
