Answer:

C. If it is tested and the evidence does not support it.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is more less a scientific guess. Before such a guess or prediction is made, empirical observations and deductions are first made. It is from the result of the observations that a hypothesis statement is made.

For a hypothesis to become widely adopted and accepted, it must be testable within the limits of the experiment as described by the proposer. When subjected to test and it agrees, the status of a hypothesis can be upgraded.

If the hypothesis is tested and evidence contrasts the result being sort for, a hypothesis will be discarded.

Cesium has a radius of 272 pm and crystallizes in a body-centered cubic structure. What is the edge length of the unit cell
olchik [2.2K]

Answer: Edge length of the unit cell = 628pm

Explanation: For a body centred cubic structured system, the relationship between the edge length of the unit cell and radius of the atoms in the structure is

Edge length of Unit cell (a) = (4R)/(√3)

R = 272pm = (272 × (10^-12))m = (2.72 × (10^-10))m

a = (4 × (2.72 × (10^-10)))/(√3)

a = (6.28157 × (10^-10))m = 628pm
