2. If the scientists only performed 1 experiment but it supported their hypothesis, why can it not be considered a theory?
Answered by bobpursley
Your teacher is misleading you. It could be accepted as a theory IF there were no contrary hypothesis with supporting evidence, AND this experiment had been subject to peer review.

Normally, it takes much more evidence and support than one experiment.
