Why can a hypothesis never be proven?
It can be proven, you have to do at least 3 experiments to prove your hypothesis.
Is it true or false that a scientific theory can never be disproven?
Scientific theories can be disproved. This is a key part of the scientific method, creating hypothesis that can be disproved if they are incorrect. However, you can never really prove a hypothesis - you can find evidence that either fits or doesn't fit. If it doesn't fit the hypothesis needs to be revised or thrown out. If the evidence supports the hypothesis, there may be something that you are missing which may reject the hypothesis.
How did your experiment prove or disprove the hypothesis?
That depends on the result of the experiment. The experiment is a way to test a hypothesis, and it's completely fine if the experiment disproves the hypothesis. Ideally, though, the experiment will support the hypothesis.
If a hypothesis is proven wrong why is it still important?
Generally, creating a hypothesis is a no-win situation. The hypothesis you devise must be provable false. Your data will either prove your hypothesis false or it will fail to prove the hypothesis false. You can never prove a proper hypothesis true. Science does not prove truth, it simply discards the false.
Does the qualitative observations have to be related to what your hypothesis is?
Original Answer:I would tie it back in and show whether it helped to reject/fail to reject your hypothesis.Different Answer:A hypothesis (Informal definition), is basically a question based on anticipated results. The experiment is created to try to prove or disprove that hypothesis. When conducting an experiment, only three results can occur. That is the hypothesis is confirmed, the hypothesis is incorrect, or the results were inconclusive. Of the three possible answer, the third is the most maddening as it could indicate that something is wrong with your experiment.Sometimes the most fascinating discoveries come from observations that are either inconclusive, or disprove a hypothesis.

How can you develop and support your ideas with evidence?
You can look for existing studies that support your ideas or conduct an experiment to prove your hypothesis.
