Who is credited with the first atomic theory based on expiramental evidence?
scientific method used in the development of atomic theory
What do scientist need to do to prove something?
If they are mathematicians they can prove a theorem. In the physical sciences theories cannot be proved. The current theory is the one that fits the experimental evidence more closely than all alternative theories. When a new theory comes along that is more accurate, the old theory is superseded.
Is a scientific theory a controlled experiment?
No - you can use evidence from an experiment to support a theory, but they are not the same thing. A theory is an idea as to why something is, how it works, etc. that is strongly supported by evidence. An experiment is set up in order to gather information to support a theory or to help a hypothesis become a theory.
