Initially I started off in my undergraduate studies by writing a few biology lab reports in my courses, however chemistry lab reports are not comparable to these lab reports, in which the content and structure are different. Once I got used to writing chemistry style lab reports, the format and style of writing changed again when I reached Quantum Mechanics.…

However, I think they use the standard English style of writing more often. The plain English style of writing has more use of complex wording and use of wordy phrases. This causes the reader to have frustration if they are not familiar with the terminology or terms used in the writing. This makes for misinterpretation of the message of what the…
