Factor level

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-004329

A specific setting or value chosen for an independent variable, known as a factor, in an experimental design. Each factor can have multiple levels, which are systematically varied to observe their effect on a response variable. For example, in a chemical experiment, temperature might be a factor with levels set at 25 °C, 50 °C, and 75 °C.
