Scientific laws are factual. Theories are basically opinions or ideas people have.

Scientific laws and theories differ in that scientific laws are things in nature whereas theories are just explanations for things that have been seen.

A law is kinda like a definite thing, whereas theories are things that could be or might not be definite
