Atomic Structure - Dalton's Atomic Theory

From Dalton's experiments and observations, and from the work of some of his colleagues he proposed a new theory of the atom.

Answer:

For answering we will have to create a 5x3 table. It will have the following headings:

The information that has to go in the table is:

Dalton's Postulates

1.1:All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms.

2.1: Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties. Atoms of different elements differ in size, mass and other properties.

3.1: Atoms cannot be subdivided, created or distroyed.

4.1 Atoms of different elements can combine in simple whole number ratios to form chemical compounds.

5.1: In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated or rearranged.

Keep/Modify/Discard:

1.2:Keep

2.2:Modify

3.2:Modify

4.2:Keep

5.2:Keep

Rewrite in case of need:

1.3: No need

2.3: Atoms of different elements differ in size, mass and other properties. Atoms of a given element can also differ in mass.

3.3: Atoms can be further subdivided, and using nuclearfission and fussion techniques atoms can be created or destroyed by changing them into other atoms.

4.3:No need

5.3: No need
