Question

Why is it important to compare your data from a lab with that of your classmates?

Answer 1

I'm not sure if you have choices but without choices I would say this is important because if your answers differ like alot then you know that something when wrong or you both maybe had different circumstances in which you did the investigation.

Answer 2

To detect and rule out the possibility of any handling error

Step-by-step explanation:

It important to compare your data from a lab with that of your classmates so as to ensure that there was no significant handling error during the lab. If the data from two or more classmates differ significantly from each other, there is possibility of performance error which is then removed by redoing the activity.
