Answer:

The accepted views of science knowledge can change over time. Changes can result from new science observations, but can also be affected by social, political or religious convictions. To develop a deeper understanding, students need to investigate the context of the time in which science ideas were developed.

Answer:

Scientific knowledge is constantly evolving as new observations are made.

Explanation:

By definition, science is the systematic and calculated study of nature and physical world around us.

Now human knowledge is continuously evolving. Any person can simply understand it by remembering his or her own experience about past and present knowledge. Our many assumptions and understandings about the surrounding things get mature and upgraded with the passage of time.

This is true for the whole humankind as well. Scientific knowledge has evolved in a continuous manner. Through Greek philosophers, Roman statesmen, Muslim scholars to the current era of advancement.

Now their are various examples to prove that science has evolved during time. Like concept of gravity by Isaac Newton was that it is a force of attraction between two bodies which is directly proportional to product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. But then Albert Einstein came up with the improved concept of gravity with the general theory of relativity that it is the effect of mass on fabric of space time.

Another example is the determination of structure of atom from Greek concept and Dalton's theory to experiments of Rutherford and Chadwick, which laid the basis of quantum mechanics. Now we know today that Greek concepts about atom and Dalton's concepts partially, were wrong about atomic model.

So it is correct that human knowledge about science is continuously evolving with respect of time.

The specific heat of zinc is 0.39 J/g*°C. How much energy needed to change the temperature of 34g of zinc from 22°C to 57°C. Is
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

464.1 J absorbed.

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of zinc =  0.39 J/g°C

Mass of zinc = 34 g

Temperature changes = 22°C to 57°C

Energy absorbed or released = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 57°C -  22°C

ΔT = 35°C

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 34 g. 0.39 J/g°C. 35°C

Q = 464.1 J

Down a group, the electron shielding tends to________
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation The number of energy levels (n) increases, and so does the distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. The increased distance and the increased shielding weaken the nuclear attraction, and so an atom can't attract electrons as strongly.

Be sure to answer all parts. Show the overall reaction for formation of racemic 3−bromohexane from (E)−3−hexene by enterin
Viktor [21]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The mechanism for the formation of bromohexane from hexene has been clearly shown in the image attached to this answer.

Hexene is attacked by HBr and a carbocation is first formed as shown. The carbocation is flat and planar. it can be attacked on either face by the bromide ion.

Attack on either faces yields a racemic mixture of the R and S enantiomer as shown in the image.

You can use the mechanism shown to fill in the structures.
