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

Chemistry

Hitman42 [59]3 years ago

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.

Which college classes would a student most likely take to become an oceanographer? Select 4 choices.
Setler [38]

Answer:

marine biology

coastal ecology

astronomy

meteorology

Explanation:

As a college student, to study oceanography one will have to take classes in the field of marine biology, coastal ecology, astronomy and meteorology.

An oceanographer is someone or a professional that studies the ocean in order have more scientific knowledge about them.

Oceanography is a merger of geology, biology, chemistry, physics as it pertains to the ocean.

  • There is no need to study human anatomy to study oceanography.
  • Marine biology and coastal ecology deals with study of life forms in their marine environment.
  • Astronomy and meteorology helps to gain insight about the formation of the ocean and how weather relates to the ocean.

If 8.6 g of ch4 and 5.9 g of o2 react, what is the mass, in grams, of h2o that is produced?
Alenkasestr [34]
This may seem confusing because they give you two masses, but all you have to do is pick one to do the calculations. Personally, I would pick O2, since the molar mass is easier to calculate. The answer would be 3.3 g (rounded for sig figs). To get this, first take the 5.9 grams of O2 and convert it to moles by dividing by the molar mass of oxygen gas, which is 32. Then, multiply both by the mole-mole ratio, which is 2:2, or simply 1:1. After that, multiply that by 18g, which is the molar mass of water to get grams of water. 

REMEMBER, you have to write and balance the chemical equation before you can do any of that work. 
That happens to be CH4 + 2O2 => CO2 + 2H2O

What mass of aluminum is produced by the decomposition of 5.0 kg al2o3?
Nina [5.8K]
The  mass for  of aluminum that is produced  by  the decomposition  of  5.0 Kg Al2O3 is 2647 g or 2.647  Kg

          calculation
  Write  the equation for decomposition  of Al2O3

Al2O3 = 2Al  + 3 O2

find the  moles  of  Al2O3 =  mass/molar mass

convert  5 Kg  to g   = 5 x1000 = 5000 grams
molar mass of  Al2O3 =  27 x2 + 16 x3  = 102 g/mol

 moles =5000 g/  102 g/mol = 49.0196 moles

by use  of mole ratio between Al2O3 to  Al  which is 1:2  the moles of Al = 49.0196 x2 =98.0392  moles


mass of  Al = moles x molar  mass

= 98.0392 moles x  27g/mol = 2647  grams  or 2647/1000 = 2.647 Kg
