Answer:

A well tested explanation of a natural phenomenon

Explanation:

A scientific theory is an explanation of a natural phenomenon which has been drawn from a well tested observation.

Theories are products of repeated scientific experiments. When a hypothesis otherwise known as a "scientific guess" survives a lot of scrutiny, we can elevate it to the status of a theory. Most theories starts off from simple observations. These observations can further spark series of experiments in such a field and a scientific guess proposed. Further testing and experimenting would now lead to a theory.

Compare the density of 25g of copper to 80g of copper?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

55

Explanation:

25g is less dense than 80g therefore will mostly float. if you subtract 80-25 that will leave you will 55 as the difference

In the reaction C + O2 → CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be n
artcher [175]
Stoichiomety:

1 moles of C + 1 mol of O2 = 1 mol of CO2

multiply each # of moles times the atomic molar mass of the compund to find the relation is weights

Atomic or molar weights:

C: 12 g/mol
O2: 2 * 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol
CO2 = 12 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol = 44 g/mol

Stoichiometry:

12 g of C react with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2

Then 18 g of C will react with: 18 * 32/ 12 g of Oxygen = 48 g of Oxygen

And the result will be 12 g of C + 48 g of O2 = 60 g of CO2.

You cannot obtain 72 g of CO2 from 18 g of C.

May be they just pretended that you use the law of consrvation of mass and say that you need 72 g - 18g = 54 g. But it violates the proportion of C and O2 in the CO2 and is not possible.

a doctor's order is 0.125 g of ampicillin. the liquid suspension on hand contains 250 mg/5.0 ml. how many milliliters of the sus
disa [49]
0.125 g=(0.125 g)(1000 mg/1g)=125 mg.

Then, we need 125 mg of ampicillin.
5 ml of  liquid suspension contains 250 mg of ampicilling , therefore:

5 ml----------------250 mg of ampicilling
x--------------------125 mg of ampicilling

x=(5 ml * 125 mg of ampicilling) / 250 mg of ampicilling=2.5 ml

Answer: we require 2.5 ml
