As scientists learn more what happens to scientific ideas?

As scientist learn more they will develop or reconstruct their scientific ideas, most scientific ideas follows the scientific method, which includes coming up with predictions, revising old theories with the light of new theories or observations, and trying to falsify a theory or any scientific ideas, as time goes on.

Usually starting from scientific ideas, it goes on to coming up with hypothesis, then executing research, combining ideas from past published or unpublished research data and ideas, and eventually publish on a scientific journal, and other scientist will put in their two cents to the theory/scientific idea published.

This is what i found on google “according to the collision theory, the following criteria must be met in order for a chemical reaction to occur: molecules must collide with sufficient energy, known as the activation energy, so that chemical bonds can break. molecules must collide with the proper orientation.” i hope this information you.
