Which statement about scientific explanations is true?

Chemistry

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Scientific explanations are made as a result of carefully researched and experimented procedures in order to arrive at a logical and probable conclusion on a subject matter. However, these scientific explanations are usually made based on facts as at the time it is been made. These facts could however be incomplete making them subject to change when more facts are produced.

For example, the Dalton's atomic theory became modified after new evidences emerged that atom is not the smallest unit of matter (with the discovery of electrons, protons and neutrons), atoms of the same elements are some times not alike in all aspect (the discovery of isotopes) among other modifications made to his theory.

This example among others indicate that scientific explanations are open to change/modification.

finlep [7]
This problem is very easy to answer. You simply have to look at the subscripts of each element of the compound.

1. For caffeine, which has a molecular formula of C₈H₁₀N₄O₂, it contains 8 atoms of Carbon, 10 atoms of Hydrogen, 4 atoms of Nitrogen and 2 atoms of Oxygen.

2. For Iron(III) Sulfate, which has a molecular formula of Fe₂(SO₄)₃, it contains 2 atoms of Iron, 3 atoms of Sulfur, and 12 atoms of Oxygen.

Which type of reaction occurs in the following equation?
aniked [119]

Answer:

The right choice is → a reduction reaction

Explanation:

From the balanced equation

  • 3CIO⁻₍aq₎ → CIO⁻ ₍aq₎ + 2Cl⁻ ₍aq₎

we can calculate the change in oxidation number of Cl in reactant and product

in reactant ClO⁻

let x= oxidation number of Cl

and oxidation number of oxygen in its compound is (-2)

and the total charge on the ClO⁻ ion = -1

  • ∴x + (-2) = -1 →→→ x = +1

in product Cl⁻

let x= oxidation number of Cl

and the total charge on the Cl⁻ ion = -1

  • ∴x = -1

so the oxidation number of Cl decreases from +1 in reactant to -1 in product so it is reduction reaction.

But, disproportionation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which a single substance gets reduced as well as oxidized.

For a disproportionated substance  , it should contain at least three oxidation states. which isn't the case here.

<u>So, the right choice is: </u>

→ a reduction reaction
