|
|
Observation
|
proposed explanation for an observable phenomenon.
Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot satisfactorily be explained with the available scientific theories |
|
Scientific Law
|
like Newton's law of universal gravitation. A scientific law must always apply under the same conditions, and implies a causal relationship between its elements
|
|
Scientific Theory
|
comprises a collection of concepts, including abstractions of observable phenomena expressed as quantifiable properties, together with rules (called scientific laws) that express relationships between observations of such concepts
|
|
atomic Number
|
the proton number, number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom and therefore identical to the charge number of the nucleus. It identifies a chemical element. In an atom of neutral charge, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.
|
|
Valence shell Configuration
|
electron shell
