Introduction to Group E

Hello! We are Ethan and Sean from Group E! Our ISS Topic for this year is "Investigation of the effect of reactivity of metals affect the redox reaction of a voltaic cell"

The Scientific Method

The scientific method is an empirical method of acquiring knowledge that has characterized the development of  science .                                             It involves careful  observation ,  applying rigorous skepticism about what is observed ,  given that cognitive assumptions  can distort how one interprets the observation.
