  "term": "Experimental design",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The structured plan for conducting an experiment to collect data that can be analyzed to draw valid conclusions about the relationship between variables. It involves selecting appropriate factors, levels, and response variables, and determining the number of experimental runs. Common approaches include full factorial, fractional factorial, and response surface designs.",
