What is wrong with the following statement?
"The results of the experriment do not agree with the theory. something must be wrong with the experiement"
You and your friends are having lunch together and complaining about the cold weather. Kathy begins telling about her spring break trip to warm,
sunny Spain. She starts to laugh when she tells the group that she was frustrated when she awoke on the first day to an outside temperature of 18°
and a predicted high of 24°. Kathy was laughing because in Spain temperatures are measured in Celsius. What was the predicted high in
Fahrenheit?

- Archimedes, a famous Greek scientist, was given a problem by King Hieron II of Syracuse (Sicily). The king suspected that his crown, which was supposed to be made of pure gold, contained some silver alloy, and he asked Archimedes to prove or disprove his suspicion. (It turned out that the crown did not contain silver.) How would you experimentally determined whether or not the crown was pure gold? (Hint: The method came to Archimedes when getting into a full bathtub. See the footnote in Experiment 22 for Archimedes’ solution.)arrow_forwardEnvironmental science is an interdisciplinary field of study. This means that.. * Multiple branches of science only (biology, chemistry, etc) are covered. Many science and non-science fields of study, such as economics and politics, are included.

Is a container filled with water (H,O) and some beach sand (SiO2) a solution? O Yes, because SIO, dissolves completely in water to form Si(aq) and O (aq) solvated ions. O No, because water is not capable of forming homogeneous solutions. O No, because SiO, is a nonpolar covalent molecule that does not dissolve completely in water to form solvated ions. O Yes, because water reacts violently with beach sand to form H2SIO3, Metasilicic Acid, a diprotic strong acid.arrow_forwardA Chemistry 20 student uses a thermometer and a hot plate and measures the boiling point of ethyl alcohol to be 74.3 ºC.
