Abstract

Experimentation is part of everyday life. Will leaving 30 minutes earlier than usual in the morning make it easier to find a legal parking space at work? How about 20 minutes earlier? Or only 10 minutes earlier? Can I increase my gas mileage by using synthetic oil? Will my problem employees make more of an effort to be on time if I make it a practice to stop by their office to chat at the start of the day? Will a chemical reaction be faster if the amount of a specific reagent is increased threefold? How about if the temperature is increased by 10 °C? Will the yield increase if an extraction is carried for 40 minutes instead of 20 minutes?
