Which of these is a characteristic of science? O It is based on views and opinions. O It is guided by values like trust and truth. O It helps find answers to questions which are not testable. O It gives the same result when experiments are repeated.
2. Identify as true (T) or false (F): Scientific method may never prove a theory to be wrong. Repeat measurements that fall close to the true value are both accurate and precise. There is only energy in the Universe and no matter. The number in the quantity '30 miles' is inexact.
Classify each description as a hypothesis, theory, or law.-An untested explanation based upon observation or known facts-A description that predicts what happens, but doesn't explain how-Scientists after many experiments, state that matter is composed of atoms- An explanation that has been tested and verified- A botanist guesses, but has not verified , that plants with one red-flowered and one white flowered parent will have pink flowers
Which of the following statements are correct concerning the scientific method? There is more than one correct answer. "When a can of soda pop is opened, a fizzing sound is heard." This is an example of observation. DA scientific theory eventually becomes a law "Helium balloons float because helium is less dense than air." This statement can be considered an observation. Scientific law is a tentative interpretation or explanation. Both scientific law and theory have the potential to be proven wrong.
Describe the steps of the scientific process in details. Explain the difference between a theory and a law.
Is one anomaly enough to disprove a hypothesis? If not, how many are? Why is it important that scientists use all of their results and not just some of them? What should we do if the evidence neither supports nor contradicts the hypothesis?
The Calcium content of a banana sample was homogenized and measured. Are the results comparable? Do they have the same precision? Please use data given.
Which of the following best defines a scientific theory? A) An 'if, then' statement that can be tested by science. B)A model used to explain how or why a phenomenon occurs. C) A unifying concept; often a mathematical description of the way in which a natural phenomenon occurs. D) A piece of knowledge about the outside world received through the senses or instrumentation. E) Something that is known to be consistent with reality; that which has not been falsified.
1.) Which macroscopic characteristics differentiate solids, liquids, and gases? (List as many as possible.) 2.) In what types of technology do the elements designated as critical materials generally play important roles? 3.) When a scientist looks at an experiment and then predicts the results of other related experiments, which type of reasoning is she using? Explain your answer.
The Scientific Method Group of answer choices isn't used much in modern chemistry. is a strict set of rules and procedures that lead to inarguable fact is based on continued observation and experiment is just a theory

Which of the following statements is TRUE? A scientific law is fact. Once a theory is constructed, it is considered fact. A hypothesis is speculation that is difficult to test. An observation explains why nature does something. A scientific law summarizes a series of related observations.
