Question

Label each statement with its corresponding type of scientific knowledge.

Answer 1

Label each statement with its corresponding type of scientific knowledge.

law

theory

fact

hypothesis

The melting point of ice is 0°C: thus is a fact based on repetitive experiments

Repeated observations have consistently

shown that oppositely charged objects

attract each other: this is law

When the elements carbon and nitrogen

are mixed at 1500°C, they will react

with each other.

this is a hypothesis

Atoms are made of protons, neutrons,

and electrons. Although we can’t directly

see these particles, this structure

explains many experimental observations

Theory
