It depends.

Obviously, first of all, you'll need a level of expertise on the subject. Ie, you should know what you are doing. You could be either degree educated or self taught.

Assuming you have the ability to conduct an experiment, then you should check if you need a special permit for the experiment in question. If a license isn't required, then you can go ahead and do your experiment.

The only point where an amateur scientist would struggle is in cases where the licensing laws apply. Anything that involves animals, humans, medicine, chemistry, radio technology, etc would require a special permit. In such cases being employed in a lab as a scientist would help.

In what order would a scientist complete these events Renumber the events in the Correct Order column?

A scientist will begin by devising the experiment, and the process will culminate with analyzing the results of that experiment.


Why are scientist tools important?

A scientist needs tools in order to conduct controlled experiments for gathering data. Without the proper materials, a scientist could not make objective observations on their field of research, and so their findings would be meaningless. Also, a scientist needs a large sample size in order to account for all variables that could influence the experiment.

Why is it important for a hypothesis to be testable in order to conduct a valid scientific experiment?

It is important for a hypothesis to be testable in order to conduct a valid scientific experiment because testability allows researchers to gather evidence that either supports or refutes the hypothesis. This helps ensure that the results of the experiment are reliable and can be used to draw meaningful conclusions about the natural world.


Why is preparation important in science?

In order to conduct an experiment, it is expected that an individual must collect materials and some background information in order to prepare themselves before they can actually collect data in an experiment.


Why was it necessary to degas the sodas prior to the experiment?

It was necessary to degas the sodas prior to the experiment to remove any dissolved gases, such as carbon dioxide, in order to prevent interference with the results of the experiment. Presence of dissolved gases can affect the accuracy of the measurements taken during the experiment.
