Resistors are passive electronic components.

Examples of resistors.

Identification

Resistors' values are shown on the resistor, coded in a series of colored bands.

The resistors in labs here in Pratt are almost all 5% resistors or 1% resistors. That is, their actual values are either are guaranteed to be within 5% or 1% of the nominal, or labeled value.

The 5% resistors have three bands showing their value: two significant figures, and then the number of zeros.

The 1% resistors have four bands showing their value: three significant figures, and then the number of zeros.
