Hypothesis testing is a formal procedure for investigating our ideas about the world using statistics. It is most often used by scientists to test specific predictions, called hypotheses, that arise from theories.
There are 5 main steps in hypothesis testing:
State your research hypothesis as a null and alternate hypothesis.
Collect data in a way designed to test the hypothesis.
Perform an appropriate statistical test.
Decide whether to reject or fail to reject your null hypothesis.
Present the findings in your results and discussion section.
Though the specific details might vary, the procedure you will use when testing a hypothesis will always follow some version of these step

Red arrows represent the movement of the mantle due to convection. Black arrows represent the movement of the plates due to gravity. Scientists think that this transfer of thermal energy from core to mantle causes convection in the mantle.
Answer : The chemical formula of pure substances are different from those of mixtures because all the matter that exists on earth can be classified into two categories namely; pure substances and mixtures.
A pure substance always consists of a single element or compound. Example Oxygen is formed only of oxygen (O) atoms; whereas the table salt which is formed only by sodium chloride (NaCl) molecules is a compound which is made up of pure elements. A pure substance cannot be further divided into its components.
A mixture is made up of different compounds and/or elements. It can be easily separated using any physical method. Example, sand, salt and saw dust mixed together as a mixture. Also, it will not have a definite chemical formula.

The important thing to notice here is that the reaction takes place at STP conditions, which are defined as a pressure of
100 kPa
and a temperature of
0
∘
C
.
Moreover, at STP one mole of any ideal gas occupies exactly
22.7 L
- this is known as the molar volume of a gas at STP.
Since all the gases are at the same conditions for pressure and temperature, the mole ratios become volume ratios.
To prove this, use the ideal gas law equation to write the number of moles of hydrogen gas and of chlorine gas as
P
V
=
n
R
T
⇒
n
=

For hydrogen, you would have
n

=
P
⋅
V

R

and for chlorine you have
n

=
P
⋅
V

R

Thus, the mole ratio between hydrogen and chlorine will be

The same principle applies to the mole ratio that exists between hydrogen and hydrogen chloride.
So, the balanced chemical equation for this reaction is
H
2(g]
+
Cl
2(g]
→
2
HCl
(g]
Notice that you have a
1
:
2
mole ratio between hydrogen gas and hydrogen chloride.
This means that the reaction will produce twice as many moles as you the number of moles of hydrogen gas that reacts.
Use the volume ratio to find what volume of hydrogen chloride will be produced by the reaction
4.9

⋅

L H

=
9.8 L HCl
Now use the molar volume to find how many moles you'd get in this volume of gas at STP
9.8
L HCl
⋅
1 mole HCl
22.7
L HCl
=
0.4317 moles HCl
Finally, use hydrogen chloride's molar mass to find how many grams would contain this many moles
0.4317
moles HCl
⋅
36.461 g

mole HCl
=
15.74 g
Rounded to two sig figs, the answer will be

=
