Which statement best describes the difference between a scientific theory and a scientific law

Chemistry
2 answers:
Hitman42 [59]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

A scientific theory is usually proposed to explain certain observations after repeated experiments and available facts. However, a scientific law is more experimented and confirmed than scientific theories - this means scientific law is better supported by scientific facts and data than scientific theory.

Also, not all scientific law can be mathematically represented (includes equations).

A scientific law is a statement based on repeated observation. It will always be true under a certain set of circumstances.

A scientific theory is well supported (by evidence) explanation for an occurrence in the natural world.

A scientific law does not need to include an equation.

Therefore, the correct answer is B.

what is the difference between a chemical bonds formed in the molecules of 02 and the chemical bonds formed in crystals of a NaC
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

O2 is a covalent substance while NaCl is an ionic substance

Explanation:

In O2 molecule, the bond is between 2 oxygen atoms which are non - metals. Thus, this is a covalent bond since it involves 2 non metals.

Whereas, for the NaCl molecule, the bond is between a metal sodium (Na) and a non metal Chloride(Cl) and thus we can say this is an ionic bond.

Thus the difference is that O2 is a covalent substance while NaCl is an ionic substance.

What is the change in internal energy ( ΔU ) of the system if q = –8 kJ and w = –1 kJ for a certain process?
Radda [10]

Answer:

Change in internal energy (ΔU) = -9 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

q = –8 kJ [Heat removed]

w = –1 kJ [Work done]

Find:

Change in internal energy (ΔU)

Computation:

Change in internal energy (ΔU) = q + w

Change in internal energy (ΔU) = -8 KJ + (-1 KJ)

Change in internal energy (ΔU) = -8 KJ - 1 KJ

Change in internal energy (ΔU) = -9 KJ

Help needed urgently<br>the word missing or partially seen is oxygen ​ I forgot to put more pointa
butalik [34]

Explanation:

2.04 % hydrogen

32.65% sulphur

65.31% is oxygen

atomic ratio

hydrogen =2.04÷1=2.04

sulphur =32.65÷32=1.02

oxygen =65.31÷16=4.08

simplest ratio

hydrogen = 2.04÷1.02=2

sulphur =1.02÷1.02=1

oxygen =4.08÷1.02=4

empirical formula is H2SO4

Volume and moles are __________ related. This relationship can be calculated by using ___________ Law.
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is - directly; Avogadro’s.

Explanation:

At the same temperature and pressure, gases of the same or equal volume have the same number of molecules. The relation between the moles of the gases and the volume of the gases are indirectly proportional to one another at the same temperature and pressure. This law is called Avogadro's law. In the case of an ideal gas of a particular mass has the volume and moles are directly proportional.

Thus, the correct answer is - directly; Avogadro’s.
