What's the preview of the scientific method

The boiling point of propanoic acid is higher than that of 1-butanol because: propanoic acid has a higher molecular weight than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is more soluble in water than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is a better hydrogen bond donor than 1-butanol. propanoic acid forms hydrogen bonded dimers and 1-butanol does not. 1-butanol forms hydrogen bonded dimers and propanoic acid does not.

The reactions shown here can be combined to make the overall reaction c(s) + h2o(g) ⇌ co(g) + h2(g) by reversing some and/or dividing all the coefficients by a number. a. c(s) + o2(g) → co2(g) k=1.363×10^69 b. 2 h2(g) + o2(g) → 2 h2o(g) k=1.389×10^80 c. 2co(g) + o2 (g) → 2 co2(g) k=1.477×10^90

Large helium-filled balloons are used to lift scientific equipment to high altitudes. what is the pressure inside such a balloon if it starts out at sea level with a temperature of 10.0ºc and rises to an altitude where its volume is twenty times the original volume and its temperature is – 50.0ºc ?
