Charles goodyear was a scientist who was looking for ways to keep rubber from melting in the summer heat and becoming brittle in the winter cold. he discovered the solution by accident when someone left a sample of rubber and sulfur on the stove. was this a scientific discovery? a. yes. goodyear was a scientist, so his discovery was scientific. b. no. goodyear failed to develop a hypothesis about the method. c. no. goodyear did not follow the scientific method. d. yes. goodyear used observations and empirical evidence.

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

The discovery of the solution which prevents the melting of the rubber and the brittleness during winter by Goodyear will be considered a scientific discovery.

This is due to the fact that any scientific discovery begins with making an observation on the basis of which further steps will be followed. The accidental research of the solution act as evidence to the scientific observation.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.

burning of wood and coal

explanation:

the panel also concluded there's a better than 95 percent probability that human-produced greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide have caused much of the observed increase in earth's temperatures over the past 50 years.
