A quantity that does not change is called a constant.A constant can be measured, but you either can't change it during an experiment or you don't want to.This is in contrast to an experimental variable, which is a component of an experiment that is impacted by the experiment.

A constant is a quantity that does not change. Although you can measure a constant, you either cannot alter it during an experiment or else you choose not to change it. Contrast this with an experimental variable, which is the part of an experiment that is affected by the experiment.
