A scientific theory attempts to explain observations by construction a system of mechanisms by which the observations can be accurately predicted.
A scientific law is simply a statement summarizing the results of observations without providing any attempt at explaining the observations.
For example, Newtonian physics is a scientific theory that attempts to explain, amongst other things, the motion of objects when subjected to gravity.
The law of gravity is merely a mathematical formula that describes the force of gravity felt between any two objects (with limitations if the objects are incredibly small - see quantum mechanics) but does not attempt to explain why the formula is what it is. Scientific laws simply summarize the empirical (observed) data available.
A scientific theory is an explanation of some natural phenomenon. A scientific law is a succinct statement of some aspect of a scientific theory.

scientific law is unlike a scientific theory in a sense that its the next step above a scientific theory.A scientific law is one that has been proven, a scientific theory has not been proven yet.

In science, "theory" is the name applied to well-established scientific knowledge. It doesn't mean that there are doubts about the atomic theory.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution
A scientific law is the description of a recurring event that occurs in nature. A scientific theory is an explanation of the law. The law does not change, but the theory may change when new data indicate that it needs to.
i think it nota law because a law is a system of laws that we have to fallow and a theeoryis a hypothus of data
A scientific law states a pattern found in nature and a scientific theory explains that pattern
A law is known to be true. There is no dispute about it. A theory is disputable. Gravity is a law, the Big Bang is a theory.
Mostly semantics. A "law" is a theory that can be expressed mathematically.
A theory explains how something works - a "law" is just a thumb nail description of a theory.
