The questions tha science can answer are those can be tested to try to find a definite answer.

For example, whether light is wave or particle is matter of science.

Questions that cannot have a definite answer are the field of religion or philosophy, and are out of the boundaries of science.

For example, does a criminal deserve the punishment of not seeing light? It is a moral question, which to be responded needs the intervention of philosophy and that could have different anwers at different times and in different societies.
