A statement based on practical experience rather than scientific proof
A synthetic a posteori statement is one that equires sensory experience to determine the validity of the statement. I.E. "There is a rabbit on my porch." This statement requires empirical evidence gathered through the senses to determine whether or not it is true. "A posteori" means after/post experience. After one's experience of an object can it be understood or truth be affirmed. Contrast to an analytic statement. I.E. "All daises are flowers." One need not check every daisy to see if it is a flower as this statement is true in its definition. This is called an "a priori statement" as its truth is undestood "prior" to its experience. The negation of an analytic statement is a contradiction in the statement. I.E. "All daises are computers." The predicate "are computers" does not logially follow from the definition of the subject "Daisie". Contrast both to the statement: "The sun will rise tomorrow." This question is neither a synthetic or analytic statement, as one cannot appeal to logic of the statement or sensory experience to know if the sun will infact rise tomorrow.
Is to know about something by direct/indirect investigation.
Not completely. The empirical formula of a substance can be determined from its percent composition, but a determination of molecular weight is needed to decide which multiple of the empirical formula represents the molecular formula.
Empirical evidence and the application of reasoning to it.
The empirical atomic radius of polonium is 168 pm.
That is known as an empirical statement or an empirical observation. It is rooted in evidence gathered through direct experience or observation of the natural world.
An analytic proposition is a statement that is true by definition or through the meanings of the words used. It does not require empirical evidence to be proven. In contrast, a synthetic proposition is a statement that requires empirical evidence or observation to be proven true or false.
A statement that cannot be proven is known as an unprovable statement, such as "There is life on other planets" or "There is a higher power controlling the universe." These types of statements lack empirical evidence or a method for verification.
The false statement is C. The empirical formula is PO2.
Empirical proof is "dependent on evidence or consequences that are observable by the senses. Empirical data is data that is produced by experiment or observation."( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empirical )"In mathematics, a proof is a convincing demonstration that some mathematical statement is necessarily true, within the accepted standards of the field. A proof is a logically deduced argument, not an empirical one."( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_proof )
A statement of fact like "The rate of unemployment is currently 5 percent" is an example of an empirical claim. This statement can be verified or disproved through observation, measurement, and evidence.
False, a statement that can be tested is a hypothesis. In a hypothesis "if...then..." format, one is presenting a possible solution to a question. A law is a proven statement or idea.
