Question

explain daltons atomic theory what are its limitations
​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) All matter is made of atoms. Atoms are indivisible and indestructible.

2) All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties

3) Compounds are formed by a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms.

4) A chemical reaction is a rearrangement of atoms.

limitation:

It does not account for subatomic particles: Dalton's atomic theory stated that atoms were indivisible. However, the discovery of subatomic particles (such as protons, electrons, and neutrons) disproved this postulate.

Answer 2

Dalton atomic theory;

Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe all matter in terms of atoms and their properties. The first part of his theory states that all matter is made of atoms, which are indivisible. The second part of the theory says all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.

limitiatiion of daltons atomic theory;

1) Atom consists of particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons but Dalton says atoms are indivisible and they can neither be created nor be destroyed.

2)Discovery of isotopes revealed that the atoms of the same element possess different weights.
