The current scientific verdict on the phlogiston theory demonstrates which two of the following principles?

Chemistry
1 answer:
masha68 [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The two valid principles are:

  • Scientific theories can be replaced by better theories.
  • An experiment can disprove a theory that scientists have accepted.

Explanation:

The scientific knwoledge is not inmutable; it may (and does) change with new discoveries.

In fact, scientific theories cannot be proved right, instead they are constantly tested to try to  disprove them. This is what the principle that theories are falsiable means.

As long as a scientific theory is not disproved it remains valid, but new discoveries may lead, eventually, to its disprovement.

Scientific knowledge evolves because new procedures, new technologies, and new evidence leads to a better understanding and better explanations.

IS IT TRUE?that the moon collided with a tiny plant made of rubble from earth's collision with another planet that made the moon
Nikolay [14]
That is currently unknown, because we don't have anyone who lived them with that knowledge, but based on some facts of Guessing. I would say yes, because another planet near Earth right, well from what I heard, the asteroid that killed the dinos, had another part recoil back into space, and could have hit another part of the asteroid.

what is the difference between the number of electrons in an atom of selenium, Se and the number of electrons in an atom of alum
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Well, electrons can be converted into a atomic number so if SE atomic number is 34 that means it has 34 electrons. AI has a atomic number of 13 meaning it has 13 electrons. So the difference is that SE has more electrons then AI.

How many grams of oxygen gas are contained in a 15 L sample at 1.02 atm and 28°C? Please show your work.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

0.019 g.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to find the no. of moles of oxygen gas:
  • We can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT. </em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = 1.02 atm).

V is the volume of the gas in L (V = 15.0 L).

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = ??? mol).

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),

T is the temperature of the gas in K (T = 28°C + 273 = 301.0 K).

∴ n = PV/RT = (1.02 atm)(15.0 L)/(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(301.0 K) = 0.62 mol.

  • To find the mass of oxygen gas, we have:

<em>no. of moles = mass/molar mass.</em>

<em></em>

∴ mass of oxygen = (no. of moles)(molar mass) = (0.62 mol)(32.0 g/mol) = 0.019 g.
