<span>The scientific method is a systematic way of questioning about the world around us and answering questions. The number of steps varies from one description to another, mainly when data and analysis are separated into separate step, but this is a fairly standard list of 6 scientific method steps, which you are expected to know for any science class:
1. Form a Hypothesis. This is a sort of educated guess about what you expect.
2. Design an Experiment to test your hypothesis. An experiment has an independent and dependent variable. You change or control the independent variable and record the effect it has on the dependent variable.
3. Conduct Experiment
4. Record data and observations and analyze what the data means. Often, you'll prepare a table or graph of the data.
5. Form a Conclusion. Conclude whether to accept or reject your hypothesis. Communicate your results.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The given reaction is exothermic . So ΔH is negative .
Gas is evolving so work done by gas is positive or w is positive.
Change in internal energy that is ΔU is negative.
q = u - w
u is negative , w is positive so q is negative .
In order of reactivity: magnesium, iron, copper, silver
The answer to this question is A- evaporation
