Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretically, we should expect the coin to flip 250, or very close to 250 times, and land on heads.

This is because the probability of getting heads is
(1)/(2), or 50%.

There is a 50% chance of landing heads or tails, so that means it would land 250 times on heads out of 500 flips of the coin.
