By scientific question, it really just means create a normal question. The example would be:
How will gas be affected if the temperature in an enclosed container is to be changed?
There are mannnyyy ways how to write a question for this, you just have to make sure you write what you are changing and how you are changing it, oh and make it sound smart haha.
There are 100 degrees between the freezing (0°) and boiling points (100°) of water on the Celsius scale and 180 degrees between the similar points (32° and 212°) on the Fahrenheit scale.
Problem: Two scientists are doing an experiment designed to identify the boiling point
Answer: 250°F is the higher temperature by 2°F
Answer:
a. Methanol remains the same
b. Methanol decreases
c. Methanol increases
d. Methanol remains the same
e. Methanol increases
Explanation:
Methanol is produced by the reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst as follows; 2H2+CO→CH3OH.
a) The presence or absence of a catalyst makes no difference on the equilibrium position of the system hence the methanol remains constant.
b) The amount of methanol decreases because the equilibrium position shifts towards the left and more reactants are formed since the reaction is exothermic.
c) If the volume is decreased, there will be more methanol in the system because the equilibrium position will shift towards the right hand side.
d) Addition of helium gas has no effect on the equilibrium position since it does not participate in the reaction system.
e) if more CO is added the amount of methanol increases since the equilibrium position will shift towards the right hand side.
Answer:
A. Do some background research
There are 5 steps for the scientific method while doing an experiment
Step 1: make a question
Step 2: research that question
Step 3: Hypothesis
Step 4: Test and collect data
Step 5: Conclusion
