Differentiate theory from law?

In science the things called "laws" are invariably just rules-of-thumb that hold true only under ideal conditions. For instance : the gas laws - they only hold for low pressure and high temps ... and if you don;t believe that, then what are vapor tables for? A "theory" is any hypothesis that's been verified so often that "everybody" believes it. Note that non-scientists can not distinguish between theory, hypothesis, and crack-pot notion.


Why is a hypothesis that is unsupported by observation rejected by scientists?

Can a hypothesis that has been rejected be of any value to scientists?

Yes. But usually a hypothesis (if, then, because statement) is changed overtime to establish a conclusion on the investigation. The point of the collection of the data is to show whether or not the hypothesis was supported, and if not needs to be corrected/modified. Certain parts may still be helpful/kept but in most cases it is changed
