Verify them. You can redo an experiment to see if you got the same results. You can analyze what you did to see if there are any variables that could have affected your experiement.

Advise (from someone who struggled with Lab work):
- Work all of the theoretical analysis involved in the experiment. The goal is to understand the principles behind your experiment, so you can immediately understand if the data values you are collecting are indeed within the realm of possibilities.
- If during the experiment you start collecting suspect data, you need to review your experiment set-up as well as you measurement equipment.
Once the experiment is over, it is extremely difficult to do forensics on the data. If the experimental data is inconsistent with the theoretical data, your best alternative is to repeat the experiment (after performing the two prep steps I described previously).
DO NO FAKE RESULTS...the instructor will know...trust me.

Just do the experiment again to make sure you are correct. If you are still not sure then I can't say much but to keep doing it over and if all the data is still in range, then it must be correct.

remember the scientific method: find the problem, develope a hypothesis, conduct an experiment or survey, gather data, classify and analyze data, find a conclusion, verify the answer. all you need to do is verify the answer by doing it again. i hope this helps and i hope i got the scientific method in the right order.

in order to verify your results you must repeat the experiment at least 2 more times to find out if the results are consistent.

Do the experiment again.....under the exact same conditions as the other experiments....nothing uncontrolled can be involved....any variable can nullify any conclusions to the experiment.

you sould redew the experiment following the steps of the scientific method and repeat it several times

Mention that in your conclusion if you have to do a write up about the lab. Describe it as the margin of error.

state that it might not be accurate and it might be inaccurate because of human error and speculate what the correct result should be.
