True or False: The Scientific Method is repeated and checked by othersTrue
Does order matter in the Scientific Method?Yes!
The Scientific Method is composed of what four steps?Making observations, writing a hypothesis, doing experiments, and proposing a theory.
What are observations?Facts obtained by observing and measuring events in nature
Are measurements considered observations?Yes!

A statement that explains observations is called what?A hypothesis
Can an observation have multiple hypotheses?Yes!
What are experiments?"They are p<b><span style=""font-weight: 400;"">rocedures that test hypotheses, scientific laws, or theories</span></b>"
Experiments have what effect on the hypotheses?They confirm or disprove them

What is the formula for scientific notation?A x 10^n 
What does the A equal in the formula for scientific notation?The decimal between 1 and 10
What does n equal in the scientific notation formula?A whole number, positive or negative
"is <b><span style=""font-weight: 400;"">19.8 * 10^2 written in scientific notation? </span></b>"No, because the decimal must be between 1 and 10
"Is <b><span style=""font-weight: 400;"">9.18 * 10^-3.1 written in scientific notation? </span></b>"No, because the exponent is not a whole number
How do you convert a number to scientific notation?"<b><ol><li><div><span style=""font-weight: 400;"">Move the decimal point to make it between one and 10</span></div></li><li><div><span style=""font-weight: 400;"">The number of the exponent is equal to the number of times you move the decimal over (positive to the left, negative to the right)</span></div></li></ol></b>"

What is the rule for significant figures for Addition and Subtraction?"<b><span style=""font-weight: 400;"">The answer has the same number of decimal places as the original number with the fewest decimal places</span></b>"
What are the three steps for significant figures in equations with both multiplication/division and addition/subtraction?1. Follow Order of Operations<div>2. Keep Track of Significant Figures </div><div>3. Round at the End</div>
