the units, vols. in 1799, he made an electrochemical

battery.

What evidence supports dynamo theory?

Tidal heating supports the dynamo theory. Magnetized lunar rocks and asteroids are used for evidence of this.http://phys.org/news/2012-10-evidence-dynamo-asteroid.htmlEarth's outer core contains liquids that conduct electricity.Earth's outer core is a liquid. Earth's core contains mostly iron and nickel.


When did William Gilbert discovered electricity?

1660, William Gilbert discovered the Earth's Magnetic Field..


Why do you conduct multiple trials in making experiment?

you conduct multiple trials so that if a variable was accidently changed in the first experiment you can catch and correct it in the next experiments. this way you get an average answer that can work almost every time. this way you can see if your theory works the same every time. So that we can explain.


What is the hypothesis for electricity?

We are long past the hypothesis stage, with regard to electricity, which is a very well understood phenomenon at this point. If you would like to know about the history of scientific investigation of electricity, there were a number of hypotheses, including the hypothesis that lightning is a form of electricity (which is true) and that nerve impulses are also a form of electricity (also true) and that electricity can be generated by some types of chemical reactions (also true) and that electricity can be used to make the Frankenstein monster come to life (not true).


How do scientists come up with a scientific theory?

Scientists develop a scientific theory through a systematic process that begins with observations and questions about natural phenomena. They formulate hypotheses and conduct experiments to test these hypotheses, gathering data and evidence. This evidence is then analyzed, and if it consistently supports the hypothesis, it may be refined and eventually elevated to a theory. A scientific theory is widely accepted within the scientific community when it withstands rigorous testing and peer review, explaining a broad range of phenomena and making accurate predictions.

What is a salt according to Arrhenius theory?

In Arrhenius theory, a salt is a compound formed when a metal cation combines with a nonmetal anion through ionic bonding. Salts dissociate in solution to produce cations and anions, which can conduct electricity.

Which part of metallic bonding theory helps the most to explain why metals are able to conduct electricity?

The free electron model of metallic bonding helps to explain why metals can conduct electricity. In this model, metallic atoms are packed closely together, and some of their outer electrons are delocalized and free to move throughout the metal, allowing them to carry electrical current.


What was Galvanis theory to explain his first investigation?

Galvani's theory to explain his first investigation was that animal electricity was responsible for the contraction of muscles, rather than an external source of electricity. He believed that the electricity originated within the muscle tissue itself, leading to the concept of "animal electricity."
