Answer:
D) Evaluating it with experimentation and argument.
Explanation:
If you don't have enough observational evidence, then you can't really strengthen your scientific knowledge, because you haven't collected enough information to answer the questions you're asking.
If you only have a few scientists working on a question, it will take longer to find an answer. With more people working on a concept, it can be solved in more time.
It can be good to create new hypotheses, but only if you've already tested your original hypothesis (with experimentation and argument), and it turned out to be wrong. Once you've rejected your first hypothesis, only then should you make a new one.
Answer:
Solids: definite shape and definite volume (highest density)
Liquid: indefinite shape and definite volume (glide past each other)
Gas: indefinite shape and indefinite volume (lowest density)

Answer:
a) -7.395kJ of energy are released.
b) 125g of O₂ must react.
Explanation:
Based on the reaction:
4 Fe (s) + 3 O₂(g) → 2 Fe₂O₃ (s) ΔH = -1652 kJ
<em>4 moles of iron with an excess of oxygen release -1652kJ of energy</em>
<em />
a) The heat released is:
1.00g Fe (molar mass: 55.845g/mol)
1.00g × (1mol / 55.845g) = 0.0179 moles de Fe.
As 4 moles release -1652kJ, 0.0179 moles release:
0.0179 mol Fe × (-1652kJ / 4mol Fe) =<em> -7.395kJ of energy are released.</em>
<em></em>
b) As 3 moles of oxygen produce -1652kJ, 2150kJ are released when react:
2150kJ × (3 mol O₂ / 1652kJ) = 3.9 moles of O₂
As molar mass of O₂ is 32g/mol, mass of 3.9 moles of O₂ is:
3.9 mol O₂ × (32g / mol) = <em>125g of O₂ must react</em>.
