Answer:

A law is a statement of fact but a theory is an explanation. 

Explanation:

A law is in general a universally accepted fact. It remains true and the same in any part of the world it takes several years of experimentation to develop a law.

A law is a statement that cannot be challenged at the present point of time with all its technological advancements. A theory is different from a law. It is an explanation of facts.

Most acceptable one among several explanations becomes a theory. A theory doesn’t have a universal nature like that of a fact.
