Whether or not you write down an hypothesis, if you conduct an experiment, you naturally have a hypothesis since you are trying to find the answer to something and have some sort of expectations.

∙ 9y agoA single test can be used to test a hypothesis. This is an educated guess. It is possible to do this in one application but more than one is better to properly prove the theory.

Can a hypothesis be disproved by a single experiment.?
Yes. A hypothesis describes what we expect to happen in an experiment. If we do the experiment and something different happens, then our hypothesis is "falsified", or demonstrated to be false. In that case, we'll need to reconsider our hypothesis to determine how it was wrong. We can revise our hypothesis and then conduct a different experiment to test it. It's easy to demonstrate that a hypothesis is incorrect, but it is impossible to prove that it is true.
Does a experiment test a theory?
i dont no but i need the anwser Yes an experiment will test a theory. You perform an experiment to test the hypothesis. If the experiment can be repeated then the hypothesis becomes a theory. People perform experiments to test and retest theories.
What is a structured test of a hypothesis?
An experiment
What do scientist do when a hypothesis is not supported by an experiment?
Scientists then state another hypothesis and test it out with another experiment.
What do you do after you formed a hypothesis?
test your hypothesis.
