I think D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I agree besides for the making an observation part.

thomaster (thomaster):

@Kirito305 well usually, an observation is prior to an investigation or experiment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's true but an observation comes after the experiment as well.

thomaster (thomaster):

no observations come during an experiment, after the experiment you got results

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well yes not during an experiment but after the experiment because you have to observe and record.

thomaster (thomaster):

lol xD During an experiment you observe and record After an experiment you HAVE observeD and recordeD

thomaster (thomaster):

If you add NaOH and HCl in a glass you will observe that the solution will get very warm and a solid precipitates so during the experiment you record in your labjournal that the solution gets hot, solid NaCl precipitates and that the reaction is exothermic After the reaction there is just water and NaCl left. What can you observe then?
