Astudent is trying to create a table that compares hypotheses, theories, and laws. hypothesis theory law do scientific researchers formulate it? yes yes yes does it explain why things happen? yes yes no yes yes yes is it used to make predictions? no yes yes which of the following questions would most likely fill the blank in the table? is it an intelligent guess? is it newly formulated? is it based on observations? has it been proved?

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. in the first step, calcium carbide and water react to form acetylene and calcium hydroxide: cac2 (s) + 2h2o (g) → c2h2 (g) + caoh2 (s) =δh−414.kj in the second step, acetylene, carbon dioxide and water react to form acrylic acid: 6c2h2 (g) + 3co2 (g) + 4h2o (g) → 5ch2chco2h (g) =δh132.kj calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide from these reactions. round your answer to the nearest kj .
