Answer:
According to Dalton, atoms of different elements combine in simple whole number ratios to form compounds. This is not observed in complex organic compounds like sugar (C12H22O11). The theory fails to explain the existence of allotropes; it does not account for differences in properties of charcoal, graphite, diamond.
