Facts that Matter

•  Law of Chemical Combination

      Given by Lavoisier and Joseph L. Proust as follows:

      (i) Law of conservation of mass: Mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

           e.g.,A+B-C+D

           Reactants R Products

           Mass of reactants = Mass of products

      (ii) Law of constant proportion: In a chemical substance the elements are always present in definite proportions by mass.

           E.g., in water, the ratio of the mass of hydrogen to the mass of oxygen is always 1 : 8 respectively.

           These laws lacked explanation. Hence, John Dalton gave his theory about the matter. He said that the smallest particle of matter is called ‘atom’.

•  Dalton’s Atomic Theory

      1. Every matter is made up of very small or tiny particles called atoms.

      2. Atoms are not divisible and cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

      3. All atoms of a given element it are same in size, “mass and chemical properties.

      4. Atoms of different elements are different in size, mass and chemical properties.

      5. Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole number to form compounds.

      6. The relative number and kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound. 9

•  Atom

      Atoms are the smallest particles of an element which can take reaction.

      Size of an atom: Atomic radius is measured in nanometres.

•  Molecule

      It is the smallest particle of an eleme4It- or a dolnpound which can wxist independently.

      • Molecules of an element constitutes same type of atoms. 1.w

      • Molecules may be monoatomic, di-atomic or polyatomic. IT .

      • Molecules of compounds join together in defmite proportionsrand constitutes different type of atoms.

•  Atomicity

      The number of atoms constituting a Molecule is known as its atomicity.
