| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| science method | organized set of procedures used by scientists to solve a problem |
| elements | a pure substance made of only one type of atom, defined by a specific number of protons (atomic number), that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means |
| hypothesis | educated guess or testable prediction |
| law | a descriptive statement, backed by extensive experiments, that explains a consistent and predictable behavior of matter, often expressed as a mathematical equation |
| theory | a well-substantiated, comprehensive, and repeatedly tested explanation for why and how natural phenomena occur, built from numerous supported hypotheses and facts |
| data taking | the systematic process of making and recording observations and measurements during an experiment or study |
| Qualitative Data | describes characteristics or changes in a substance or reaction that aren't numerical, focusing on what is observed (like color, texture, or gas formation) rather than how much |
| Quantitative Data | measurable, numerical information about a substance's amount, concentration, or abundance |
