Which of the following is the best definition of a scientific theory?

Chemistry
1 answer:
scoundrel [369]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>A. A broad, well-supported explanation of related observations or events</em>

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a detailed reasoning of a well supported observation or experiment. Though, not just anyone can <em>create </em>a scientific theory... it has to be widely accepted throughout the scientific community!

A law on the other hand, is simply a description of things that happen in the natural world. It doesn't quite say <em>why, </em>with a law, it just is what it is! Laws don't become theories and theories do not become laws!

<em>I hope I was of assistance! Science can be difficult! </em><u><em>Have a nice day and spread the love <3</em></u>

These goats are eating grass on a sunny day. What is happening to the carbon in the air around the living things on the mountain
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

both

Explanation:

Carbon in the air around the living thing is moving in and out of its lungs. The movement is occurring at the same time. This is one of the most important gaseous exchange important to life.

  • The goats takes in oxygen gas from the surrounding and releases carbon dioxide in the process.
  • But, air is actually drawn in by the goat which is a mixture of several gases.
  • Air contains carbon dioxide which is a rich source of carbon
  • With the carbon dioxide from respiratory processes, the goat ejects and breathes out this waste carbon matter.
  • Therefore, the gaseous exchange in a goat involves the movement of carbon in and out of the air.

The ksp of lead iodide is 7.1 × 10-9. a chemical engineer adds 0.0025 mol of ki to a solution of 0.00004 mol pb(no3)2 in 500 ml
inn [45]
Answer is: n<span>o, because the ion product is less than the Ksp of lead iodide. </span>

Chemical dissociation 1: KI(s) → K⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq).
Chemical dissociation 2: Pb(NO₃)₂(s) → Pb²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq).
Chemical reaction: Pb²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq) → PbI₂(s).
Ksp(PbI₂) = 7.1·10⁻⁹.
V = 500 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L = 0.5 L.
c(KI) = c(I⁻) = 0.0025 mol ÷ 0.5 L.
c(I⁻) = 0.005 M.
c(Pb(NO₃)₂) = c(Pb²⁺) = 0.00004 mol ÷ 0.5 L.
c(Pb²⁺) = 0.00008 M.
Q = c(Pb²⁺) · c(I⁻)².
Q = 8·10⁻⁵ M · (5·10⁻³ M)².
Q = 2·10⁻⁹; <span> the ion product.</span>

Summarize the relationship between an electron's energy level and its location in an atom
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The further an electron is from the nucleus. the greater its energy level.

Explanation:

When an electron is close to the nucleus, it is at as low an energy level as it can get.

We must put energy into an electron to pull it away from the attraction of a nucleus.

So, electrons that are further from the nucleus are at higher energy levels.
