What are the 5 statements in Daltons atomic theory? |
|
Definition
1. All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. 2. 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. Atoms can be subdivided, created, or destroyed.
4. Atoms of different elements combine in simple who number ratios to chemical compounds
5. In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, seperated, or rearranged. |
