You perform an experiment and find that your results do not agree with the accepted theory. did you make an error in your procedure?

The boiling point of propanoic acid is higher than that of 1-butanol because: propanoic acid has a higher molecular weight than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is more soluble in water than 1-butanol. propanoic acid is a better hydrogen bond donor than 1-butanol. propanoic acid forms hydrogen bonded dimers and 1-butanol does not. 1-butanol forms hydrogen bonded dimers and propanoic acid does not.

Volume is a measurement of how fast particles of a substance are moving

Ariver current has a velocity of 5km/h relative to the shore, and a boat moves in the same direction as the current at 5 km/h relative to the river. how can the velocity of the boat relative to the shore be calculated?
