Answer:

1. Models and theories should explain known fact.

2. Models and theories should enable scientists to make accurate deductions and predictions.

Explanation:

A model involves the use of a physical, conceptual, or mathematical representation to describe a real phenomenon that could not be understood by mere direct observation. It could be in the form of a diagram or picture, aircraft model kit etc.

A theory is a well tested and confirmed phenomenon through repeated observations and experiments. It is a stronger assertion that explains the facts about a phenomenon. Such are not guesses or mere saying, but reliable accounts of some phenomenon in the real world.

Therefore for models and theories to be valid, they must explain known facts and enable scientists to make accurate predictions.

In a compound, such as CH3OH, how determine which is the central atom?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Choose the least electronegative atom other than H.

Explanation:

A Lewis structure consists of <em>terminal atoms</em> and one or more <em>central atoms</em>.

H can be <em>only a terminal atom</em> because it can form only one bond.

So the central atom must be either C or O.

The central atom is the less electronegative atom: C.

So, start the Lewis structure with a central C atom.

Then attach an O atom to get C-O.

Finally, attach the H atoms.

The condensed formula often gives you a clue where they go.

The formula CH₃OH implies that there are 3 H atoms on C and one on O.

The connectivity of the atoms is then as in the diagram below.

Which is a characteristic of mixtures
barxatty [35]
They are three types of mixtures:
-solutions : they are homogeneous mixtures of 2 or more sub. in a single phase.
-suspensions: if the particles in a solvent are so large that they settle out unless constantly tired, the mixture is called a suspension.
-colloids: particles that are intermediate in size between those of solutions and suspensions form mixtures called colloids.

Are the noble gases considered inert or reactive? Why?
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Noble gases are considered as Inert because they are unreactive.

Explanation:

Seven noble elments are known to us , they are: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon, and oganesson. Noble gases have 8 electrons in their outermost shell and hence their valence shell is complete, they donot need further electrons to complete their octet so they are unreactive. Also they posses following properties.
