Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-010279
The value assigned to the quantity being determined once the analysis and all the calculations based on the measurements are complete, as it is finally reported. It may come from averaging several readings and applying corrections, and it should be accompanied by an uncertainty and by a sensible number of digits. A result differs from a raw observation, which is a single reading before any calculation.
