Why does Paul Ehrlich concede that the theory of evolution “cannot be refuted by any possible observations” and thus is “outside

of empirical science”?

nordsb [41]2 years ago

Evolution can not be tested by experiment given that it depends largely on observations that fit into a wider scope and point to a common conclusion.

<h3>Can evolution be proven empirically?</h3>

Science is know to be empirical, In science, the evidence that backs up a claim is what establishes it as true or false. Thus all theories must be tested by experiment.

However, the theory of evolution can not be tested by experiment given that it depends largely on observations that fit into a wider scope and point to a common conclusion. In other words, evolution lies “outside of empirical science”.

The fact that it can not be directly proven empirically does not necessarily make it out to be false. That was the conclusion of Paul Ehrlich in his 1967 article.

Give the hybridization for the c in hcch. group of answer choices
Tamiku [17]

The hybridization for C in acetylene, HCCH, or C₂H₂ is 'sp'.

Discussion:

There are three different forms of hybridization -

  1. sp- The first occurs when two carbon atoms are triple linked.
  2. sp₂- When two carbon atoms are double-bonded to one another, this is known as sp₂.
  3. sp₃- When a single bond joins two carbon atoms, this is known as sp₃.

In the case of acetylene(HCCH or C₂H₂):

  • The carbon atom requires additional electrons to establish four bonds with hydrogen and other carbon atoms in the synthesis of C₂H₂. One 2s₂ pair is consequently transferred to the vacant 2pz orbital. Each carbon has two sp hybrid orbitals after the 2s orbital in each atom combines with one of the 2p orbitals.
  • As a result of the atoms' symmetrical alignment in a single plane, C₂H₂ possesses a linear molecular structure. Due to their lower electronegative nature than Hydrogen atoms, all Carbon atoms are situated near the center of the Lewis structure of C₂H₂.

                                              H-C≡C-H

Therefore, it is concluded from the above discussion that the hybridization type of acetylene is 'sp'.

Base your answers to questions 69 through 72 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.
evablogger [386]
Hydrazine has a higher boiling point than water because hydrazine exhibits a stronger intermolecular forces than water. Although both compounds exhibit hydrogen bonding which is a strong intermolecular force resulting to a high boiling point, hydrogen bonding is stronger in hydrazine. This is because in a hydrazine molecule, there are two atoms of nitrogen available for hydrogen bonding as compared to water which has only 1 oxygen atom for hydrogen bonding.
