A successful scientific experiment will result only in

  • A.Confirming predictions
  • B.Accepting many hypotheses
  • C.Rejection of one or more hypotheses
  • D.Proving a hypothesis

Answer: C

A successful experiment results only in the rejection of one or more hypotheses.

Evidence can disprove a hypothesis conclusively but can never prove one, since the next observation may contradict it. A hypothesis that survives repeated attempts to refute it is provisionally accepted, not proved.
