Question

  1. complete the following table by identifying the observations as quantitative or qualitative observations.

observation|quantitative or qualitative?
the density = 3.24 g/cm³
the substance is red.
the metal is malleable.
mass = 35.5 g
the reaction produced white smoke.
the distance is 7.8 km.
the texture of the substance is soft.

  1. how are science and technology related?
  2. is the hypothesis \babies like the color orange best\ a good hypothesis? explain

Explanation:

Step1: Recall definition of quantitative

Quantitative observations have numbers.

Step2: Recall definition of qualitative

Qualitative observations are descriptive, no numbers.

Step3: Categorize "the density = 3.24 g/cm³"

Has a numerical value for density, so quantitative.

Step4: Categorize "The substance is red"

Describes color, no number, so qualitative.

Step5: Categorize "The metal is malleable"

Describes a property, no number, so qualitative.

Step6: Categorize "mass = 35.5 g"

Has a numerical value for mass, so quantitative.

Step7: Categorize "The reaction produced white smoke"

Describes a visual - non - numerical, so qualitative.

Step8: Categorize "The distance is 7.8 km"

Has a numerical value for distance, so quantitative.

Step9: Categorize "The texture of the substance is soft"

Describes texture, no number, so qualitative.

Science discovers natural phenomena and laws. Technology applies scientific knowledge to create useful products, methods or services. Science provides the theoretical basis for technology, and technology can also drive scientific research by providing new tools and problems.

A good hypothesis should be testable. This hypothesis about babies liking the color orange can be tested by observing and recording babies' reactions to the color orange compared to other colors. However, it is somewhat subjective as "liking" can be hard to precisely define and measure. But overall, it can be tested through experiments, so it has some elements of a good hypothesis.
