Which statements are true regarding observations, experiments, theories, hypotheses, laws, and scientific methods? Select all that apply. O The correct sequence of events in the scientific method are: observation + hypothesis > experiment theory. A theory is a guess about something that has occurred in nature. O Scientific theories can not be tested and modified. Hypothesis is tentative interpretation or explanation of observations.

c) A metal sample has a mass of 7.56 g. The sample is placed into a graduated cylinder previously filled with 20.00 mL of water (enough to cover the sample). If the final volume in the cylinder is 21.68 mL, what is the density of the substance? Consult Table 1.4 on page 19 of the textbook to identify the metal.
Discuss several political,social or personal considerations that might affect a scientist's evaluation of a theory.

Identify phases of matter, pure substances, and types of mixtures (homogeneous and heterogeneous) Apply the steps of the scientific method to an investigation
If the results of an experiment to test your hypothesis show your hypothesis to be wrong: O the experiment was a failure. O you can make a new hypothesis and test it! O you need to redo your experiment until you prove your hypothesis correct! O you didn't follow the scientific method. O You can just fake your results
An tentative explanation for the collection of observations is considered a experiment O law O hypothesis
Is one anomaly enough to disprove a hypothesis? If not, how many are? Why is it important that scientists use all of their results and not just some of them? What should we do if the evidence neither supports nor contradicts the hypothesis?
Which will be an appropriate hypothesis for the experiment?
