A scientifc theory is as close as you can get to total fact as can possibly get. before a hypothises becomes a theory it needs to be tested and peer reviewed. example might be evolution theory or germ theory.
Laws are things that are facts and you can observe it all the time. example might be gravity.

A scientific law is a statement based on repeated experimental observations that describes some aspects of the universe. A scientific law always applies under the same conditions, and implies that there is a causal relationship involving its elements.A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world.

Consider two equal-volume balloons under the same conditions of temperature and pressure. One contains helium, and the other con

Olegator [25]

Answer:

1. Number of gas particles (atoms or molecules)

2. Number of moles of gas

3. Average kinetic energy

Explanation:

Since the two gas has the same volume and are under the same conditions of temperature and pressure,

Then:

1. They have the same number of mole because 1 mole of any gas at stp occupies 22.4L. Now both gas will occupy the same volume because they have the same number of mole

2. Since they have the same number of mole, then they both contain the same number of molecules as explained by Avogadro's hypothesis which states that at the same temperature and pressure, 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules or atoms.

3. Being under the same conditions of temperature and pressure, they both have the same average kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of gas is directly proportional to the temperature. Now that both gas are under same temperature, their average kinetic energy are the same.
